My Brand New 335i Coupe Just stalled out TWICE!!!!!!!

TiAg_335 · 04-05-2007, 10:13 AM

Has anyone else had this happen?? Im so pissed! I picked the car up just a couple weeks ago. I have about 945 miles on the car and this morning, as I was coming to work, as I came to a stop at a red light, my car completely stalled out on me. The car started hesitating, and then the engine just stalled out. All the lights and AC were still on, but I had to re-start the car. THEN, as I pulled into my work garage, and about to pull into my parking space, the exact same thing happened!!! What is going on?? Has anyone else had this happen??!!

Fuel pump?

s4iscool · 04-05-2007, 10:16 AM

try reading the 234234234 posts on the fuel pump.

Josh49 · 04-05-2007, 10:25 AM

sounds like another bad fuel pump..

hopefully he has on his stock wheels and ate a healthy breakfast..

BoostedBMW · 04-05-2007, 10:26 AM

Do you happen to know the production date of your car? I know that some people will say that this is beating a dead horse, but I would like to know since a few people have suggested that the fuel pump issues are on pre-Nov '06 cars.

pincud · 04-05-2007, 10:35 AM

If you changed your RTFs with aftermarket tires... and that will cause BMW to not want to service your car, because it reflashes the ECU

)

TiAg_335 · 04-05-2007, 10:38 AM

Oh man.... I was afraid this would be a fuel pump issue. My car is completely stock. No mods at all. I just called my advisor and he said it could just be a programming issue?? Does that make sense?

RiXst3r · 04-05-2007, 10:40 AM

someone accidently loaded windows vista on it...

bad software? from the factory? havent heard of that on the e92 for stalling out... just for the "jerky" cold starts.

epiphone3 · 04-05-2007, 10:55 AM

what did the oil temperature guage say? Did you look at it?

bronco · 04-05-2007, 11:01 AM

Maaaaan I am mad as hell

I dont know how to say it, so someone at BMW to understand it, but I will try to be simple as much as possible:

WHAT THE FUCK YOU STUPID CUNTS AT BMW?????? DONT YOU THINK ENOUGH IS ENOUGH????? FUCKING ASSHOLES, WE ARE PAYING 50K FOR A CAR AND WE DONT WANT TO HAVE FREAKING FUEL PUMP ISSUES ON THE FIRST WEEK OR MONTH OF OWNERSHIP.
DO YOU GET IT???? ARE YOU FUCKING STUPID OR WHAT???? THIS IS NOT A 8K KIA...........

Ohhh well, kia probably doesn even have that many problems in the first few months of ownership...................

BMW get your SHIT Together!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bronco · 04-05-2007, 11:02 AM

Sorry guys, but it is just ridiculous....
I hope you all with fuel pumps get your cars back as soon as possible...Feel your pain

Couldnt have said it better myself :rocks:

gonzo · 04-05-2007, 11:13 AM

Simple question. What # or alpha on the vin tells production date. Mine has 5k miles. I would probably think about taking a gun and shooting it if that happened to me. No Kia for the loaner.

soma4u · 04-05-2007, 11:17 AM

production date is on the inside of the drivers side door on a sticker

TheAcAvenger · 04-05-2007, 11:20 AM

bronco's post = post of the year

Revlis · 04-05-2007, 11:22 AM

Um, Give your ride a little throttle as you ease out the clutch.... With Some Practice? You'll be OK....

magmd · 04-05-2007, 11:27 AM

Dayum....sounds like another pump is going down.

Sorry bro, hope they fix that shit for you soon.

LEDZEP · 04-05-2007, 11:33 AM

Yeah, I remember when I was learning how to drive a stick....

just kidding. I hope it's not your fuel pump... but doesn't sound promising.

If all of us start filing "Lemon" claims against BMW NA they will REALLY take this issue seriously.

Odds are that BMW will not be able to fix our cars within 30 days.

Anyone want to take a guess how much money BMW will loose per car per lemon case?

What an articulate expression of displeasure!

TiAg_335 · 04-05-2007, 11:39 AM

Shit- just checked production date- 11/06

bronco · 04-05-2007, 11:48 AM

no wonder BMW gives you a KIA loaner, they proved to be more "reliable", and cheap....
