Engine Malfunction

scb · 06-13-2010, 07:49 PM

I guess it was only a matter of time until my 2007 335xi had fuel pump issues...37,000 miles and it's been taking longer to start. Now I get the Reduced Power message

fun!

I just hit 37k miles and still on my original pump... I guess it's a ticking bomb?

BTM · 06-13-2010, 08:22 PM

38k original pump...I've read stories of them going to like 65 and failing so it really is just a matter of time

oilcrankinject · 06-13-2010, 10:18 PM

26k on mine 335i and no problems!

My fingers are crossed!

Hurry up and change the pump with the latest one...it will probably be a permanent fix given the fact that it is also installed on the N55 engine.

BTM · 06-14-2010, 08:08 AM

N55's got the old pump from the factory...people are having problems with them

Kruz · 06-14-2010, 10:46 AM

Hurry up? As if they will start to use old pumps once the new ones run out? Is that your logic? Sounds silly.

30k here on my original HPFP. [knock wood]

49,500 miles and it just happened to me Saturday night on the freeway, no long cranks. I'm just glad something happened before the warranty expired because I wanted a checkup anyway.

Kruz · 06-14-2010, 11:01 AM

Wow. Lucky break but Id bet the dealer would honor if you over a few hundred miles.

Ya I guess if it was truely HPFP I could car less if it happened at 90k miles. But just in case it isn't, i'll feel good knowing I didn't have to pay out of pocket after the warranty expired.

Been there, done that

GL, OP.

scb · 06-15-2010, 01:09 PM

they're upgrading the software now, then deciding about the fuel pump based on the codes with the updated software

ArabianSensation · 06-15-2010, 02:47 PM

Isn't HPFP now covered for 100k/10 years?
