Uh oh...Fuel pump problem?

Old thread I know but my 1M is going in tomorrow for a new fuel pump. Having trouble starting a few weeks ago and seems to be getting worse. Any others?

Yep, my HPFP failed at about 18k and was replaced under warranty!

BMW bumped the warranty on the pumps to 100k, little consolation when you're stuck on the side of the road.

Has anyone here had a fuel pump failure on thei 1M?

Yes, I had it fail at 10K miles. Mine started and ran incredibly rough like it was on one cylinder. It took a few seconds to start the day before. After that I restarted it and it ran ok but I had it towed anyway. It ran so rough that I didn't want it to happen on the freeway.

Get rid of it!!! Get something more reliable! If it doesn't have NAV, give me a good deal and I'll take that unreliable lump off your hand!
