Option
Complaint Customer complains about some kind of moaning noise (flow noise) from the High Pressure Pump area. Moan noise is mainly to hear in vehicle overrun condition with released throttle pedal and sometimes also to hear during engine idle.
Cause The most reliable root cause is some kind of air ingress into the low pressure side of the fuel system. Air bubbles in the fuel system might cause such a noise which does not harm the system at all.
Production

Remedy

In case of customer complaint the fuel filter and feed pipe 
have to be replaced. 

Please be aware that the moaning noise might no disappear completely 
but this has definitely no negative impact to the engine or 
fuel system durability. 

It demonstrates the current state of the art for that vehicles/engine
combination.

Note:
Do not replace the high pressure pump.
