There are a lot of post of people on the forum that DYNO'd their car with shitty gas like Chevron...and then added 76 or better gas and made 10 more wheel power. |

Now I'm getting worried. Mat -- I remember your car and my car were both built in Oct., '06 and on the same ship over from Germany. I've got ~ 6,600 mi. on my car now...so far, so good, but it seems like it could still fail, but hopefully not. I go in for my Progman V.25.02 Navi s/w update next Mon.

That really sucks about the fuel pump. I wonder what percentage of 335i's have been affected? You could always request a 335i loaner...hook your PROcede up to it and

Im going to go there, have them test it out, and have them order it and then take my car and go back when it gets there. I just have to take out the PROcede tonight, which will take a couple mins. |

I was hoping our 2 cars didnt eat shit either. Since we got them basicly at the same time and both are e90's, with same exact everything except color. Oh well now you can have them fix your shifter also. Is that still having a problem?

Also, I dunno if I'm the first to say it, but I think the exclamation point key on your keyboard is broken. Might want to try a lower octane coffee drink in the morning. |

UPDATE:
Just got a call from my CA and he wanted me to find out from my previous dealer to who i wen to have my fuel pump replaced what EXACTLY they did to my car, so i called them and apparantly they replace the High Pressure Injection HOSE. Not the pump. I dont know if this was a negligent mistake or the right repair depending on the direction they got for Upper BMW techincians....but my SA says that the fuel pump needs to be replaced...and he has one on backorder for an existing 335i that will only get here in April.... So i will be in a loaner for a while. FUCK.
