While replacing camshaft position sensor I appear to have knock something loose that appears to be a sensor with a clip connector. It sits to top of engine towards rear of car connected to a round metal piece.

Welcome to 2CarPros.

That's a tough one without seeing it. Is it possible for you to upload a pic of the item in question? Also, let me know if it is a 1.5 turbo, the 2.0 turbo, or the 1.6 turbo.

Take care,
Joe

Welcome back:

The silver item is a High Pressure Fuel Pump. I circled it in your pic. Let me know if that is the part you are referring to and what is loose?

Thank you. That's what I was finding with further research. Can the solenoid be replaced inside it or will whole thing need to be replaced? Code showed fuel volume regulator control circuit.

Welcome back:

Is it the connector on the pump or the connector on the wiring harness? If it is on the pump, I can't see how it could be replaced or repaired. It's a molded part.

Let me know.

Welcome back:

Since it is on the pump, I would replace the unit. I can't see how it can be fixed safely, or even fixed at all. You don't want the chance of an electrical short at the high pressure fuel pump.

If I'm misunderstanding you, let me know.
