In a parts shop or garage. If you want more than that, you'll have to tell us what the engine is remapped to.

Stage 1 I believe not sure on the exact figure. Looking to go stage 2 at some point. And I’ve looked on euro car parts and other places but they don’t sell any for my reg.

I haven't tried this one, but it says it's compatible. I believe someone posted an alternative (maybe cheaper/better) on another thread but you'll have to search.

 

What are the symptoms that led you to the fuel pump?

The standard OEM unit should be fine up to stage 2.

But, you can upgrade to the Sytec unit that a lot of us use on the forum. I too personally use this model for 240ish bhp.

A lot of others also use the Walbro.

Thanks guys just to confirm this will fit my car. Is the pump inside the sender unit under the rear seat or do I change the whole unit?

You’ll need to remove the whole unit, as you need to swap the pumps over. Be sure to be careful when removing the in tank pipe feed from the unit as it gets brittle.

Thanks mate. So I take the whole unit out and just change the inside pumps over. I won’t need to code read anything or map anything, it is a straight swap correct? 

Does seem cheap was told I’ll be paying 150/200 for a decent pump? 🤷🏻‍♂️

If you buy a complete whole new unit from Skoda yes, but the pumps themselves are not expensive and they are not race pumps.

 

But, have a look around and see others opinions and experiences.
