Are you saying there was a short in the system that caused the fuel pump issue?

Check for codes, see if there is something obvious that is failing after a couple of seconds. What led you to change the fuel pump in the first place?

When was the last time the fuel filter was replaced? I would go ahead and do that if it’s been a while.

I replaced the fuel pump,checked all the fuses now when I try to start th car it will start only run for a second or two. I repeat the process with the same result. The only thing I have not checked is the relay which involves removing part of dash. Is there something else that I am missing?

Have you verified that the replacement fuel pump is the correct unit for the vehicle?

Also check to make sure all electrical connectors have been reconnected to the new unit.

I don’t know. It sounds like they might have misdiagnosed the problem the first time, or there was another issue going on at the same time that caused total engine failure.

Then it was not that but the fuel pump and replaced it(800 EURO). now they say it needs a new engine(3500euro) because it is a dead engine. got stuck. can you explain how that is possible. when ii left it last it looked like it wanted to start after the sudden stall while driivingall went on but no start felt like it needed fuel when ii read your site it is not even mentioned that a whole new engine is needed
