The Bosch fuel pump I got was dead on arrival. Didn't work at all. Then went with Motorcraft and haven't had any issues.
Pros: Motorcraft works well
Cons: Bosch dead on arrival

Its been a while and I have replaced the tank with a Mk3 tank and intank pump, got to throw out the warning again this does make a fair bit of noise so be prepared.
Pros: more robust solution
Cons: makes a fair bit of noise
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I used this one for my 02/1996 xj. The Delphi pump it comes with died after 2 weeks so I swapped it with a Bosch pump. It’s been working no problem for 2 years now
Pros: working for 2 years
Cons: Delphi pump died
Vehicle:
Jeep
I installed the VDO unit and the Bosch main pump. Didn't skimp out anywhere when it came to the fuel system...
Another suggestions though I will admit not ideal you can get fuel surge tanks for very cheap on Smeebay load it up with a Bosch pump and they can work for some engines depending on your fuel pressure and flow needs. I have gone this route before before I could get my hands on a Mk3 fuel tank with the intank pump setup, however I will say without the proper isolation between the surge tank and chassis the noise from the pump can be annoying. At the end of the day the surge tank didnt leak and worked well for about a year before I scored 2 Mk3 tanks for my projects.
Pros: didnt leak, worked well
Cons: pump noise can be annoying

If this pump wasn\u2019t leaking, I doubt it would have run properly. Some parts weren\u2019t moving freely.\u2026 the governor collar needed to be pried off, lubed, and exercised to slide normally. Advance piston was also frozen.
Pros: cleaner than before
Cons: parts weren't moving freely

Use only Bosch brand in-tank and in-line pumps.
Pros: Bosch brand
I got my Bosch replacement on Amazon a couple years ago. I also got the tank straps and j bolts there too. No problems since replacing it.
Pros: No problems
Vehicle:
Jeep
Guess what, Ferrari doesn\u2019t make fuel pumps chances are it\u2019s a Bosch(or whoever) part that\u2019s on a million other things.
Pros: generic part available
Since I don't want to be one of those guys who does not post the solution: In case someone faces the same issue - resolved by replacing both the fuel pressure regulator and the fuel pump. Both were faulty.
Pros: issue resolved
Cons: both were faulty
Vehicle:
Skoda Octavia
