Fuel Rail System Pressure TOO HIGH code

The other day when I had the problem with my car it said that I was running to lean.

Yesterday the car went into limp mode 3 minutes after starting it up in the morning. The following is the code that went off. What is the real problem according to this code?

thrust sensor been replaced?

the sensor read a reading higher then expected. get the dealer to look at it and replace the sensor if it hasn't been just to make sure it's nothing major.

Whats a thrust sensor?

it's the pressure sensor in the HPFP.

No, I do have the autotech fuel pump on my car. Am taking it to the shop where they installed everything to take a look at it.

sensor is still there. on the front point left and down. there is a service bulletin to replace the sensor. do you also have a HPFP file now that you've added the pump?

Yes I got the revo stage 2+ file on my car. Am pretty sure the sensor you are talking about has not been replaced. I have revo stage 2+, autotech fuel pump, atp downpipe, if i take the car to the VW dealership will they saw anything?

I got the sps+ so i can program it to stock but it will throw a code for the atp DP though. I do know a couple of guys at the VW dealership so maybe they can work on my car and help me out.

What is your suggestion?

Chris from revo said to have the shop take a look at the DV and make sure its opening and closing right and to relube it just to be on the safe side.

I got everything installed less than 3 weeks ago so i dont know why i should be having a problem.

Thanks for the help.

that is the TSI motor, note the 4 lob cam and thrust sensor on the fuel rail.

take it to the shop, have them check it out. clear the code. if it comes back i'd go to a dealer and ask to have the sensor replaced. there is a bulletin on elsa web for it.

I'd take it to the dealership and see what they have to say before you go replacing sensors on your own. It can become very expensive!
