First time I ever got this code - P0087 from low fuel pressure.
For what it's worth, I filled up at a place I've never been before yesterday (not a brand station) and I was fine while I was traveling yesterday.
This morning it is 1 degree in New Jersey. I started the car up fine. It idled just fine for a few moments then stumbled and stalled. When I would start again, it would start only to stall immediately. Now when I crank it only cranks. The error code is P0087.
I was wondering if the fuel gelled somehow? We have been in a cold snap for two weeks now and have been below freezing since Christmas Day. Tomorrow's forecast calls for a high of 31, with 34 the following two days and breaking 50 by Friday. Although this would definitely fix any freezing fuel, it's a long time to wait.
I have a manual 2013 passat and have recently decided to pursue the buyback feature. I'm not looking to make any more repairs to this vehicle but I need it to last about 3 more months. I'll assume this is just an extreme weather scenario mixed with perhaps a poor batch of fuel?
