My car stopped working.

Yesterday my car stopped working. As I was pulling into my work parking lot my car just shut off. I tried to restart it but nothing happened. The roadside assist came by and took me to my dealership. Today they called and said that I needed a new fuel pump. Has anyone else had this problem? Another thing, they gave me a 335 for a loaner and that car hauls ass.

Nonsense.

Youve been on this board for almost 2 years and made 68 posts. You are quite aware of what the situation is on fuel pumps and which cars they actually effect. You couldnt have missed it.

being that bingstar has a 325i, I dont think he frequents the forced induction section much to know about the hpi pump issue with the 335i's...


sounds like you either ran out of gas or the in tank fuel pump died on you.. we also put quite a few fuel pumps on cars at work, not just the hpi pumps so its not uncommon...

Look on the bright side- it's a lot easier to beat the crap on one of those than a 335 without feeling a little guilty

At least your car "died" in a safe area. Some of the people in this forum had their pump failed while driving on the highway.

Consider this as your lucky break to test drive the 335i.
