Volume control valve and high pressure pump: Notes
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 45 other vehicles, including the 2016 BMW M5, 2016 BMW 550i xDrive, 2016 BMW 550i, 2016 BMW 535i xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The fuel is delivered to the high pressure pump via the inlet with delivery pressure generated by the fuel pump. The fuel is then directed into the fuel chamber of the pump element via the quantity control valve. In this pump element, the fuel is pressurized by a piston and delivered to the high-pressure connection via the high-pressure non-return valve. The high pressure pump is screwed to the cylinder head and is driven by the camshaft via a triple cam.
