A friend has a VW Touareg with the diesel. I think it uses the same HP pump.
The pump is a known and common failure point with the results you have. The roller gets cock-eyed and things come apart. That pump might be considered a "wear" item. Maybe some lube added to the fuel will help as a preventative measure.
