I hope this clears up the misinformation as to whether the HPFP is covered under the Powertrain Warranty (5/60) or the fuel system warranty (3/36). This is the response I got from Customer Care on warranty coverage of the fuel system components.
So, if the HPFP grenades all direct damages caused by the HPFP (including metal contamination of the entire fuel system) should also be covered for 5/60 within the limitation of the Powertrain warranty.Thank you for your e-mail regarding your Jetta TDI and warranty coverage provided with your purchase. We appreciate you being part of the Volkswagen family! I understand you’d like to know the coverage for the high-pressure diesel pump, tank fuel pump, intermediate pump, and fuel injectors in your car, and I appreciate the chance to provide you with more information.
The high-pressure fuel (diesel) pump is specifically designed for use with our TDI vehicles, and is included within the coverage of the Limited Powertrain Warranty, which covers manufacturing shortcomings in your engine, transmission and drivetrain components for 5 years or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first.
With this in mind, the other fuel pumps and the fuel injectors themselves are covered specifically as fuel system components, which receive coverage for manufacturing shortcomings under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty for a period of 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first.
