What owners wrote
Car had fuel pump initially replaced when car still under the factory warranty. BMW na will try to avoid the absolute truth. Note injectors for the n54 engine are also on a world wide recall. Now the injection pump from a recall is being called extended warranty for 10 years or 120,000. Miles well it happened, got hit by a car from rear when my 335I stalled!!!!!! I was experiencing extended starts, followed by engine stalling repeatedly for 3 attempts then it will clear out.
