Well, I just replaced the main fuel rail today.

As you can see from the pic that the S5 PD are not bullet proof. The rubber center piece, part of the rubber dampner, of the PD was missing. Fuel was just shooting straight out of it. They fail just as easily as the S4.

Do your self a favor. If you are over 100k, replace it.

Thanks to Kevin Landers (hypntyz7)!

 

Um have you seen my post. I'm VERY lucky my car didn't go up in flames. EVERYONE - NO MATTER WHAT YEAR PD YOU HAVE, please check it.

 

sounds like your volunteering for a write up with pics cause i have no idea where to go for checking this...

 

Not to sound completely uneducated, but what is a PD? Where is it located? How do I check it?

 

I popped the cap off my PD yesterday to have a quick look and the lil screw had come out and was just sittin inside the cap Its back in now, so hopefully all is good

 

oo and a PD is a Pulsation Dampaner or whatever... its located underniethe the upper intake manifold and behind the water pump housing. It has a plastic cap on the end of it

 

There sould be a write up somewhere!?!?!

Do a search and you will find it. If not, I can walk you though it.
