Definitely not normal. Although I haven't experienced the problem myself, I've read that long cranking time is a symptom of the HPFP problem. Hopefully one of the more knowledgable members will be able to give you a more definite answer.

It's the HPFP. Take it to the stealership and have it replaced, it's a warranty covered issue.

Ya def seems like Faulty fuel pump. Get a rental car from your dealership or whatever and make sure they cover it. |

Not something to put off till later. Get it in and replaced ASAP! Welcome to the club! I still love my 135i, had my HPFP replaced under the recall, didn't want to wait for it to fail on it's own. Hasn't been a problem since!
