Finally got this problem fixed on my car after months of process of elimination, replacing spark plugs, the high and low pressure fuel pumps, until finally figuring this out.
Had no idea what the symptoms meant. The worst of it was a month or two ago when my car stalled out on the interstate during the absolute worst traffic. Barely managed to get my car over to the side lane before the engine stopped starting completely…
Got stuck for more than 40 minutes until a kind stranger pulled in front of me to offer to help tow my car up ahead to where the lanes weren’t walled off so that I could get pulled to the side of the road. The whole entire experience was the definition of a nightmare

What was it

[@shabr1ri]

@@SaladRostrum Replaced the coolant pump after the problem kept up with a new low pressure fuel pump, and it hasn’t broken down on me since

[@gochefs5]

Super helpful for me to know to not change the sensor.

[@gottahavegoalsset]

Very good about the fuel pressure sensor. Would like to see more hands on removal example.

[@MechanicBase]

You just simply unbolt it. Just releave the fuel from the rail first.

My 09 535i continues to give me the DME active codes 29F2 and 2B2C and Shadow codes 2FCA/ 2FDA ,I've already replaced the hpfp , lpfp , EKP, 02 sensors both plugs and packs, new gas cap, oil filler cap, low pressure sensor next I'm changing the high pressure sensor, what do you think I should do next?

[@raphaelfrancis4509]

My Audi A4 did this to me today... I checked everything... I will try a new sensor, thank you!

[@NoahHolmes-xw4tm]

how’d that turn out ?

[@raphaelfrancis4509]

@@NoahHolmes-xw4tm TH-cam deleted my first comment.. . If you are getting codes. P310b - 002 & P0087 it's the fuel pump in tank.

I would like more hands on examples of how to fix. It started off with my gas cap being loose. I fixed it but couldn't get the gas cap warning off. Then the engine light came on. I went to O'Reilly's who put that device in & the code read replace fuel tank pressure sensor. Primary was leak detected then PO455. I went & bought the part. But I don't know how to put it in and can't afford a mechanic. It's a 2008 Pontiac Grand Prix Base. Any ideas of what to do?

Did you get it fixed? There's loads of you tube videos or blogs you'd be surprised what you can be capable of if following good instructions step by step.
