This is the Bosch CP3 high-pressure fuel pump for NCV3 Sprinters equipped with the 3.0L OM642 V6 diesel engine, a direct replacement that restores correct common-rail fuel pressure and reliable injection system performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat This Part Does\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe high-pressure fuel pump is a camshaft-driven plunger pump that takes low-pressure fuel from the lift pump and compresses it to the 1,600–2,000 bar required for the OM642's common-rail direct injection system. It feeds this pressurized fuel continuously into the fuel rail, which distributes it to six solenoid-controlled injectors. The pump's output pressure is regulated by a metering valve that the ECU controls — allowing the system to vary rail pressure based on engine load, RPM, and injection strategy. When the pump's internal plungers or check valves wear, or its metering valve develops a fault, rail pressure becomes unstable — causing the rough running, extended cranking, power loss, and fuel pressure fault codes that signal pump failure. Bosch is the OE supplier of this pump to Mercedes-Benz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Symptoms of a Failing High-Pressure Fuel Pump\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eHard starting or extended cranking before the engine fires, particularly when cold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eLoss of power or sluggish acceleration under load — especially at highway speeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eRough idle that worsens as the pump's output drops further below specification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eFuel pressure fault codes or rail pressure plausibility codes from the ECU\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBlack smoke under acceleration from incomplete combustion caused by low rail pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen to Replace\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eReplace when rail pressure testing confirms the pump cannot reach or sustain specification under load. Always replace the fuel filter at the same time — contaminated fuel is a primary cause of pump failure, and a new pump on a dirty filter will fail prematurely. Flush the fuel system before installation to remove any debris from the failed pump. Note: the SKU suffix \"B\" indicates this is a remanufactured unit — a core charge may apply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNCV3 OM642 Specific — VIN Verification Required\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThis pump is for NCV3 Sprinters equipped with the 3.0L OM642 V6 diesel engine.
