- ZD30 Diesel Fuel Injection Pump Failure VP44 on a D22 Nissan Frontier Navara. Solutions or fixes for the VP44? This video is specifically about the ZD30 engine diesel fuel injection pump which is a Bosch VP44. I have a ZD30 in my D22 Nissan Frontier which is also known as the Nissan Navara in some countries. You probably came here because you can't get your engine to start or maybe it starts but does not go beyond 1000-2000 RPMs.
This video is the video I wish I had when I could not figure out what to do when my engine would not start. Now, first of all, I should tell you that I am the kind of guy that ensures to change the oil and fuel filter often. In fact, I have a video about how to change your D22 Fuel Filter and one about how to change your Air Filter if you need those.
So the issue with hard starts could not be about me not changing my fuel, air or oil filters. I changed the battery, glow plugs, changed the diesel fuel filter often and yet no start. Decisions had to be made and I will tell you what I tried and what I finally did.

If you have a ZD30 engine with a Bosch VP44 diesel fuel injection pump then you will want to look at this to see what I did. If you went through the process of having to deal with a diesel fuel injection pump that failed because of circuitry or spill valve error please comment and tell us what you did.
Im getting spill valve error fault code bro right now it's not starting diesel pump is not supplying diesel with pressure
I also had this problem with my zd30 diesel pump,same symptoms you spoke about. My quick and cheap fix was bringing the tank down to quarter or a little less and dumping 5 tins of amsoil diesel concentrate cleaner in my tank and drive around but also leaving it over night to soak. Next day drive around again and change diesel filter.
My diesel pump has never worked better.
Raymond. Thanks for sharing what worked for you. I did not mention it in the video but I did try what you did but it did not work for me. It seems in my case the pump's computer was also bad and in that case no amount of diesel cleaner would have worked.
My van just did me this last month I'm so happy I've seen this video my first thought was the injector pump and I was already thinking to get it scan to see if it was a problem with the ecu or injector pump
Justin, thanks for watching an hope you get it fixed.
I got a hard start before with no error codes and figured it out that was because of coolant temperature sensor.
It was causing the ECU think that engine is warm and preventing heaters to do their job.
Thanks for sharing what you did for the ZD30 Diesel Fuel Injection Pump Failure.
thanks for this video. I am currently in this same situation with my ZD30 fuel pump & trying to decide between servicing or buying used. Servicing cost 11K$ and the used is costing 7.5K$
Brando, it is a tough decision to make. Which one will you do?
@JB's Man Cave hey thanks for responding. I'm opting for the rebuild which gives me a 3mth warranty compared to the 7days warranty on a used pump. Also the shop let's you know if it's worth repairing when they open it up,.so that's a win right there.
Brando, that is what I did because buying something used puts you at risk with problems already there especially because you do not know how long the used pump has been 'sitting'.
@@brandobahadoor7375
Can I ask where you did the service on your pump please. Currently having a fault code 73 p3 pump comm line
Thanks a lot bro i love your explanation i jus wanna know how many powers suppose to go in that pump im suspecting my pump it's not receiving enough powers
Thanks for your thoughts on this ZD30 fuel injection pump work around. Not sure about your question.
Good info..
Thanks
I think change the pump get a new pump. Thanks alat for your advise.
Hope it works out for you.
This is a great video,any vids on blown zd30 cylinder head gasket,do you need to take the engine out to Change this gasket????
Ah... I had to do that before too - I will make that one of my next videos. 😉
After 10 years of happily driving my zd30 powered D22, my injection pump suddenly died. While in Tobago on vacation, it was idling happily and just sputtered and died. My mechanic in Trinidad scanned and showed me the spill valve error code pointing to the injection pump. Now I will wait for him to remove it and get it remanufactured. The local shop that does it assured me that a reman unit could potentially give me several more years of trouble free operation. This cost is pretty high, more than the cost of an entire engine for some of our common local cars. Of course this cost comes at a very inconvenient time so I am not very happy :(
Nicholas, I know just how you feel. That computerized VP44 pump gives extra power and zip but when it fails it makes you cry. That is how I felt when I made this video. Did you check my other video for getting the scan codes yourself?
@@JBsManCave I did not check them yet. I've subscribed and will definitely check them out. I'm too sad to look at any van content until maybe tomorrow lol
It just so happens that I've always been well aware that this failure can come knocking on my door one day but convinced myself I'd gotten a "good" one. I've experienced almost the exact symptoms you described. It will start after many tumbles and idle perfectly after an initial stumble or two. Then revving beyond 1000rpm is impossible. These engines are so powerful that even at idle you can cycle up to 5th gear and run at 50km/h on flat road and even climb some hills but obviously this is far from ideal.
Nicholas, yes, that is what I did to get home when it was doing that, put in the 4x4 and run it. The pump is too expensive for what it does though, hence some have gone with the mechanical version.
@@JBsManCave I agree. It is very expensive for what it is. There is so much that can go wrong with those pumps and they are so difficult to get to.
Been fixing diesel fuel systems over 20 years and vp44’s since 2005. Wouldn’t recommend the second hand option as rarely turns out well.
True, it is like rolling dice.
Just added: As promised in this video: Read and understand your Nissan D22 Frontier ("Navara" in some countries) WITHOUT the need for an expensive OBD scanner. Mechanics will often charge you for this service but you can do it yourself. th-cam.com/video/QyzHpMOSuwM/w-d-xo.html
Great video
Matthew, thank you kindly. I am from both. T&T is in the Caribbean. Where are you located?
@@JBsManCave I from Trinidad and Tobago
Matthew, cool, please make sure to Subscribe and check my other videos.
Hi, I am having the same problem you are having here with the exception that I was driving when it happened and the vehicle didn't give any prior warning. The vehicle isn't showing any fault codes but we have narrowed it down to the injector pump. Can you me where in Trinidad did u go to refurbished the pump???
Canya, did you try the steps in the video? Refurbished at the local authorized Bosch dealer Sookhai.
Tengo una nissan frontier zd30 cuando voy en subida creo que no activa el turbo o no siento que tiene potencia que me recomienda escanear o revisar la presa de disco o el turbo
Jose, you have a 4x4 or 4x2?
Where you getting a new non common rail pump to buy or who is rebuilding the pump properly?
Please watch the video.
Great video! Thank you. I am having the same problem. Is there anything to be careful of when removing the fuel pump or is it pretty straight forward?
Robbie, thanks. Taking out the pump is quite an undertaking because of its location. Are you just exchanging it with another pump or are you taking it to service?
@JB's Man Cave thanks for the response. I will be taking it for testing and possibly repairs
Robbie, best way, especially with a Bosch authorized dealer, because one thing you do not want to do is go through the work of mounting it up again only to see it is not working or works for a short time with any generic quick fix. Also, careful with the electrical chords that run from the pump they are kind of flimsy and damage easily.
@@JBsManCave ok cool, let me try that
@@JBsManCave thank you
Thanks
Welcome
Well i have a hard start problem..but i really think my glow plugs aren't heating..the glow plugs aren't old..and if i turn key on off atleast 6 times it starts fairly easy..im going to check the code that comes up
OK, feel free to share if you solved your problem. You can learn how to check error codes: th-cam.com/video/QyzHpMOSuwM/w-d-xo.html
Estoy en eso ahora mismo, y sí es un problema el costo de reparación....
@Miguel Zmuda thanks for your input and good luck!
I am also now getting a problem with my zd30 turbo non common rail when the diesel tank is half full it hard starts on the first cold start but when the diesel tank is full it starts normal on a cold start. So I thought it was the primer pump and changed it but I am still getting the same issue
Qadir, thanks for sharing your experience. One thing I have found with the ZD30 and that pump is you have to keep the fuel above half or the lines start to get clogged. It should not be because there is a filter but that is what happens. You should do an error code check to see what is happening: th-cam.com/video/QyzHpMOSuwM/w-d-xo.html
i have little different symptoms where it revs high RPM but struggle to climb hill at 70km/h and can't go pass 100km/h on highway. When the "engine light symbol" is off (meaning the pump is working again), it works normal. Any suggestion? My mechanic told me samething, replace 2nd hand engine as it takes same effort and money to replace just the pump. (and my engine oil is leaking too :( )
Chosen, the first thing I would do is to do a scan and see what your vehicle tells you: th-cam.com/video/QyzHpMOSuwM/w-d-xo.html
I had the same problem this year twice. The error code came from scanner is 0073. However my mechanic solved it by pulling out the cable plugs and sprayed lubricant oil into those contacts.
I wonder if severe dust on the road, esp. off-road condition and water residual from carwash blocked all those contacts to the fuel pump.
Interesting. Please remind me... what is error code 0073?
It is shown as Fuel line communication error on the G Scan.
Hi mate, i have 1999 nissan terrano with ZD30DTI (not CRD), Which has failed IP. I have spare injector pump from Nissan caravan with similar engine. If i swap the pump, do i need to do recoding or anything or its just swap, and go thing?
Thanks
Gurwinder, as far as I understand... the proper way is to calibrate the pump with the engine. I have read where people just put it in and reset the whole vehicle so no error codes come up. What you can do is contact Bosch and see what they say about it.
I wrote my Elgrand e50 off code 76 SPILL VALVE
RH, what kind of engine do you have in that?
@@JBsManCave Zd30 engine
Thanks for the video JB, I am probably a year to late😅, can you tell who did the pump repairs for you? TT💯
Kim, why are you a year late? Sookhai's.
@@JBsManCave lol🤣 your video came up as a recommendation 👍
I installed a used unit, I suspect that the root cause was the primer pump as it wasn't holding system pressure...I would always have to prime the pump before starting...and I also experience the internal element of the fuel filter collapsing...both would have staved the pump of fuel causing the pump to overheat and fail...pump requires fuel as a lubrication and coolant.
Kim, they can test the pump to tell you what is wrong. However, it is going to cost you if you have to get someone to pull out the pump and put it back.
Hi, Great video. What’s ur location? I am having same problem with my Nissan Terrano. I need the fuel pump rebuild. Can u give me the name of the company that u used to rebuild urs?
Your vehicle carries the Bosch VP44 D22? If so, you would simply look for a Bosch authorized dealer in your area and they will give you the info.
I live in the Caribbean Dominica and I don’t know of anything around my region
Oh, at the time I owned the truck it was Trinidad. Based on your location you may need to find out of the closest Bosch dealer to you or order one online.
I am in the same situation right now, its starts nicely but it only revs upto 2000rev.
Thanks for your input into ZD30 Diesel Fuel Injection Pump. What is your next move?
I got this problem on my Nissan Patrol Y61.. such tough times to face this. The ZD30 engine is a big problem.
Ami, the pump has to be well maintained to avoid this situation. Changing the filter often and ensuring there are no power surges to spoil the VP44's computer. What are you going to do?
@@JBsManCave Yeah. I always change the fuel filter according to the one on the manual but i should have done it almost every oil change after seeing how expensive this simple thing is 😩 i am planning to just buy used car with how expensive it this pump is. 2800usd for the new parts. I need a quick fix for this 🥺
The error code that i got is...
0073 P3-PUMP COMM LINE
0076 P6-SPILL VALVE
0047 CKP SEN/CIRCUIT
And somehow 0047 and 0073 disappeared after awhile
Ami, that "SPILL VALVE" error code is the VP44. Does it start at all or can start but stays below 1500 RPMs? I hear you on buying a vehicle. Have you thought about just servicing the pump rather than buying a new one?
@@JBsManCave the mechanic can't even start it. He tried to blast the oil spray thingy and it just wont start. At one time, i thought the battery was problematic (3 years old). 😩 To change the pump felt like too much money for a problem that can happen again 🥺
Ami, I know how you must feel because I was there, its a sad situation to be in.
If it starts but won't go above idle (dies), check the micro switch on the pedal. The little rubber insulator on the switch can stick to it and it won't release. Pull it off, and your done.
Graeme, thanks for your input.
good
Thanks
Engine ZD30 Direct Injection. When I revs high RPM, struggle to climb hill at 70km/h and can't go pass 100km/h on highway. No engine light. But when scanned, AT/CVT code (00) Throttle Sensor came up.
So, replaced the Pedal Throttle sensor, Intake Throttle, MAF, AF, Intercooler, Fuel filter and placed Tillix manual boost controller. But still the same.
I want to change the fuel pump but what if the problem stays?
Any suggestions ?
Venkata you have a turbo or non-turbo? How often do you change your fuel and air filters?
Did you look at the micro switch on the pedal. Not the TPS.
Hey man I'm experiencing the exact same problem, did you have any luck with other repairs or did you replace the fuel pump?
Sounds like wire breakage. Try running some direct to pcm/ecu from the tps. First test for continuity with a beep tester or fluke. You need some pin out sketches.
Is the injector pump connected to the timing at all?
O74, as far as I understand the VP44 does have internal timing that needs to be in-sync with the engine as well.
Can you suggest which mechanical diesel injection pump can be install in. ZD 30 ?
One mechanic who said he did the conversion used a VE Pump which is six cylinders so it has to be converted as the VP44 is 4 cylinders. You will also need a new rotor head, so it is not just a matter of buying a replacement pump... it needs to be done by someone accustomed to doing this as I showed in the video.
@@JBsManCave Thanks a lot for your reply. My zd 30 failed to start. The pressure and power required by ZD 30 injectors is approx 200 psi. Which ve pump produce such power. I fabricate the coupling plate by myself. But I need expert opinion about the selection of ve pump
Rana, beyond what I gave you above and the video I really cannot say as I have not been involved in the process of converting a VE pump to work on a ZD30 myself. However, if you do find out or end up making it work please let me know.
@@JBsManCave Thanks a lot bro.
@@ranatauheed6100 biggest issue with fitting a VE in its place is the flange pattern, high pressure outlet size and the vp44 runs a 25mm driveshaft. Not impossible but not easy either.
I got zd30 engine, but injector not supplying fuel to engine to start ,power supply ok, relay Ok, fuse ok but injector not working
Check the brain of your truck to see what error message you are getting from the ZD30 using the method here: th-cam.com/video/QyzHpMOSuwM/w-d-xo.html

Hi same problem injector not supplying diesel to engine what can i do please
Hi i have a ENGINE Nissan 30zd and has failure, start good but the rpm not up 2000 what You think
Juan, did you look at the video for the tips? Bad fuel injection pumps can start well but if you are not getting the RPMs then that is a sign it may be connected to the pump. How often do you change filters and add in a diesel cleaner?
@@JBsManCave yes i look that video i have new fuel filter and line too and don't see leak but the ENGINE in idle has a vibrating like out time i don't know what happened sorry for My English
Did you do an error scan? Get the scan code: th-cam.com/video/QyzHpMOSuwM/w-d-xo.html
Hi it's me again look My fuel pump give between 90 and 95% injection to the ENGINE but 40% si the correct the pump no good calibration. You know how calibrate sorry for My English thanks
VP44 pump is computer based so it would need to be set by a company capable of doing that. Usually Bosch registered.
Hello was wonder how to bleed it after running out of fuel?
There is a manual pump: th-cam.com/video/0jD0tFvJP3I/w-d-xo.html
I wanted a van so bad, still do
Cool, then it looks like you will need to start watching my truck related videos to see what you are in for. ;)
I am in this situation right now and thinking of giving up on My Nissan terrano regulus ZD3O, not going over 2500rpm, power loss. when start it I have to wait about 10 to 15min so it accept to rave...HUffff I am tired of this
Sorry to read. Did you check the error codes you are getting? if you do not know how, I have a video about it. Did you try the tips given in this video?
@JBsManCave thanks for your feedback, I saw the video about connecting a wire on pin 1 and 8, I will try to read the codes. Then I'll inform you maybe you can help.
You from Trinidad and Tobago or Caribbean?
Yes.

What kind of help do you need? Did you watch the whole video? All the help I can offer is in there so you can make a decision.
I am dealing with that exact situation at the moment. Can you say for sure if there was a noticeable increase in power and torque after the Fuel pump was restored and installed???
Kiran, the truck responds as it should, however it should be noted that the D22 or I should say in this case the ZD30 does not have the same kind of take off power as a D40 unless you are using 4x4. One of the sure things I saw with the refurbished pump is the fuel mileage returned. I can get around 500-550km on a tank of fuel and that is with load and AC sometimes. The other thing is I can take off without having to apply fuel. Just being in gear one and the truck starts to move. Are you thinking about changing engines?
@@JBsManCave thanks very much. I'll go the way of pump refurbishing because I'm about keeping it original. I won't swap the ZD because personally I think these engines are quite reliable compared to present day engines. I'll just repair my pump and do a 3 inch stainless steel exhause.👍👍
Kiran, yes, once properly maintained the ZD30 will faithfully work for you. Please do not forget to subscribe.
well wish me luck
Razad, all the best to you. Feel free to return and let us know how it goes.
Why there's no fuel coming out when you turn the injection pump left to right or from right to left
Not sure what you mean but from what I understand with these pumps if the computer registers an error it will close the check valve so not much fuel if any will come out.
@@JBsManCave if these is the prob what should we do?what is the cause why computer close the valve.thnks
Kenken, the video suggests what you should do.
Hi, got my navara zd30 decided to just turn off..will no longer run , got code 0407 (47) crank angle sensor, replaced that no difference, engine will still pop and bang on some spray down intake, i do this myself ,,spray then crank engine, it makes firing sounds, and trys to run, the fuel primer is still pumped firm no problem, but no sign of life ,
Could this simply be the electronic on injector pump decided to quit, the vehicle run flawless before this not a sign of problems..
Did you recently do anything with the engine including engine wash? Did you test all the electronic connections, fuses, and so forth including the connections to the injector?
@JBsManCave i hadnt done anything to the engine, it was all in good order,..
I let a mechanic do some testing as ,and they say its not getting power to various plugs under the bonnet, they tried telling me i need a new wiring harness, but im doubtful its the issue, all fuses are fine, when i spray some wd down the throttle then go round to door and turn ignition on and crank it will try to run but seems very rough like trying to fire on an off stroke or like timing is off..but guess that happens when haven't got someone to spray while i crank it,
I can verify if there actually is power to the injector pump plug, but was told no power going to any plugs under the bonnet
@JBsManCave i have used a pressure washer many times in the past to clean engine and never once resulted in a problem, but the vehicle has been clean and dry for a fair while, driven short drives twice daily, so never sat too long..
Its such an odd problem, cause i would have thought injector pump failure would give signs , but have read on very odd occasions the electric wries in the pump can crack/break cause they get alot of heat over there life, 18yr 340,000km
In this video, I actually show you how to test to see if the glow plugs are getting power, assuming your vehicle is a diesel, did you test that for yourself? Check my disclaimer in video.
@JBsManCave no i didn't check the glow plugs personally, but they are surely working, cause i got the engine to run a little
I had my pump rebuilt in 2015. It cost me £1300 UK.
Jon, yes quite expensive. You still have the vehicle?
Yes, I’ve still got my 2002 3 litre Nissan Terrano 2. It’s a great vehicle used daily.
Jon, sounds like you take good care of that vehicle. I was looking at the pump the other day and for the life of me I can't understand why they would have the computer system right next to the engine. There should be some kind of bracket to mount it away from it. I think I mentioned that in the video, but can't remember right now.
You did mention it in the video and I remember thinking the same at the time. I do try and take care of my truck.
i feel like qd32 is d way i will go ,,, jus hav to get d money
Razad, QD32 is a mechanical pump so you will not have the worry about failing computer. However, I believe there will be a power loss unless you can modify the pump. Do you have a ZD30 already?
@@JBsManCave
Yea I have a zd30
Due to the pump's failure you are changing the engine? Keep in mind that you will go through even more cost to make the change than it will cost to fix the pump. I once had to make the same decision.
