P0087 Fuel pressure is too low

Check this first

Note whether it stumbles under load – most often a clogged filter or a tired pump.

What usually fixes it

In the order a good shop checks them. Typical total: $93–$1,388 at $130 an hour.

1. Fuel filter

   $93–$204

   A clogged filter starves the engine when you ask for power.

2. Fuel pump (in-tank)

   $410–$1,006

   A weak pump can't keep pressure up at higher loads.

3. High-pressure fuel pump or sensor

   $562–$1,388

   On direct-injection engines the high-pressure pump or its sensor is the usual culprit.
