Anyone been down this road due to the failure of the high pressure fuel pump? Basically the metal filings mean you need to replace the entire fuel system including 6 injectors. Been quoted 3k for the work inc parts and labour. Just wondering are there any other options to get cost down, used parts etc? Anyone know of anywhere who deals with this sort of job?

That would be correct, you are always advised to replace all fuel system components due to the possibility of contamination (debris in lines, fuel rail, tank, pump etc)

You could possibly use 2nd hand parts, Injectors can be recoded, the fuel rails and regulators are like for like swaps.
