Help My Car Died
I have a 2008 335I coupe it has 2300 miles on it and today the car stopped and will not run and the engine light comes on.
I start it again and it just stops I know I need to take it in but anyone have this trouble with such a new car. I am a little disappointed about this. Thanks any info would be appreciated. |

you need to read the forums more often. fuel pump failure is the most common failure of all.

Some people it has only happened to once, but some over 3 times. All depends on the pump. You might get one that wont go out for awhile or it might go out within a week or two. Who knows

I think at this point they are replacing bad HPFPs (high pressure fuel pumps) with new ones that have the 'problem' fixed. I dunno where I read that, somewhere on this forum.

The new ones have still died. Not really fixed, just the fuel pump lasts longer or something along those lines. I know it is a new unit, but I am certain they are probably still manufactured the same way they were in the beginning...well almost
