Fuel pumps are really finicky, one day me and a friend returned three new pumps before we received an operating one. However once they are installed they are generally good for quite awhile. That doesnt rule the pump out completely though, I would check your AFM. That triggers the pump when you start the car, and if anything is malfunctioning in the AFM it will simulate a bad pump, or running out of gas.
There is a test procedure for the AFM, but Ill have to dig out my BGB to find it.
Also, there is a way to remove the pump without dropping the tank. It can get ugly and isnt reccomended by any means. The previous owner of one of my 2's performed this before I bought it. You have to cut a notch in the center floor/console area, Its hard to explain, again Ill need to post some pics up later. But it makes a fuel pump installation 1,000,000,000 times easier.
