VW Leak Detection Pump - Genuine VW 1K0906201D

Product Information

An evaporative emissions system leak detection pump (LDP) is a component of the EVAP system that pressurizes the fuel system to check for leaks. By pumping air into the system, it helps the engine control module (ECM) detect even small vapor leaks that could allow fuel vapors to escape into the atmosphere. This process ensures emissions compliance, reduces environmental impact, and maintains fuel system integrity.

• Check Engine Light (CEL) illumination, often with EVAP-related diagnostic trouble codes.
• Strong fuel odors, caused by undetected vapor leaks.
• Failed emissions test, due to the system’s inability to properly monitor for leaks.

About Genuine VW

The Volkswagen Group, also known as “VAG”, consists of Volkswagen, Audi, Lamborghini, Bentley, Bugatti, Porsche, Ducati, MAN, Scania, SEAT, and Skoda. The original parts used by VW to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine VW” brand. Manufactured under the direction of VW, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are available exclusively through the VW Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your VW are not necessarily manufactured by VW. No cause for concern, as VW designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for VW for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine VW parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a VW logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming directly from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
