1 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 06/16/2020

I bought the 2013 BMW 328xi brand new in 2012. Last year, I spent $2,000 replacing the high pressure fuel pump after my car stalled in the middle of driving. When I was going in for a routine inspection, my mechanic informed me that the timing chain needs to be replaced and the cost is very expensive. Upon further research, I found out that this is a prevalent issue with BMW owners, especially with the n20/n26 engine. I even found out that there is a pending class action lawsuit claiming that the timing chain BMW used was knowingly defective! as of now, my car is worth about $10,000 and the cost to fix this issue is almost half the value of the car. I have not gotten the timing chain repaired yet.

2 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 04/25/2017

Traveling at 65mph on a state highway, the vehicle experienced an abrupt loss of power, decelerated to 25mph, and narrowly avoided rear-end collision. Dealership diagnosis was a defective high-pressure fuel pump.

3 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 04/20/2017

High pressure fuel pump failure caused car to cease operating. Car shut down completely while in motion. I was driving through a parking structure at the time. Ultimately, the car was towed to a dealer for repair.
