I looked up fuel TSB’s for the MY in the US and BINGO! TSB B010419 covers the issue and BMW even extended the warranty to 10 years/120k miles (This only covers 2016 and very early build 2017 models however). I took it to the dealer where they had quoted me several hundred dollars in goose chase diagnostics and they were quite surprised that I had found the TSB and warranty, I told them to only look into the fuel valve and guess what? That was the issue.. saved myself a boatload!

Try this first if you only have the P0446 code! Good luck!

If I'm getting P0446 with a P0440, would it still be the same issue? I am doing some googling and if there are both, It might be the valve itself I need to replace. Thanks!
