Hi folks. I discovered something that I perceived to be worrying during my latest oil change. There were several spots of rust on the HP fuel pump, should I be worried?

Would be a relief if someone knew about this regardless of the outcome.

I've attached a picture as well.

Cheers!

Hi , this is extremely common it happens eventually at some point you could try clean it up with a wire brush or wire wheel with it removed from the car then clear coat it to prevent future rust

.here is a pic of my old hpfp on my 1.2tsi (105) before I had replaced it due to pump failure
