Seriously, I know many of you are bummed but this is far quicker and direct response to what many of us have faced in the past with fuel pumps. This was a really quick, low drama recall. I'm critical of BMW when I think they are messing up but this time around, they got a bad part from a top-notch supplier (BOSCH) and they are quickly recalling it. Doesn't get much better than that for resolving an issue.
I knew several that had several fuel pump failures in the past in E90s and E82s only to be told they were working on it, it's US fuel, blah blah. I was told that the 1M pump was not affected, blah blah....at 10K miles car takes longer to start then starts on 1 cylinder sounding like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
So just offering some perspective, this recall came on after few failures compared to the past.
