Take it to a different dealership. Make sure to tell the new dealership why. BMW has a specific procedure to test this known issue and specific thresholds that determine if a replacement part is necessary. No reason they should not put the fault codes on your service receipt (even for warranty work).

My HPFP was replaced after a CEL and a BMW technician's test that confirmed it could not maintain the required pressure. I did not notice a change in volume, lag, acceleration, etc after the change. My HPFP failure happened suddenly while driving, which may be why.
