BMW 650 owners have reported 5 problems related to other fuel system pump (under the other fuel system category). The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I've had several problems with this car, which have been quite disappointing. Drivetrain malfunction light popped up just around 52k miles, it had a rough idle, multiple cylinder misfires and would go limp often. Went to the dealership in kalamazoo, michigan, where they told me after diagnostics they were not sure what the problem was but it could have been the coils/spark plugs. Changed out both of those and it ran good for a couple months. 58k miles, 65kmiles , 70k miles and now 85-90k miles all have had this drivetrain problem. The car is now at 92k miles and is rough idling and misfiring often again. Other things to note, the fuel pump was bad (covered by extended warranty), auxiliary radiator was leaking and had to be replaced, and I have changed all coils and spark plugs twice in the last 2 years of ownership. All drivetrain problems happen while in motion (misfires) and rough idles when stationary.

A few months ago the vehicle started to display "drive train malfunction" on the screen while shaking with a horrible odor of fuel. I took the vehicle in to the dealer and was told all of the fuel injectors needed to be replaced! we are talking about a $100k+ vehicle barely out of warranty. After battling with the dealer I was told BMW has agreed to fix the problem under warranty. When I went to pickup the car I was given an invoice for almost $500 for a deductible! fast forward to 06/06/2018, driving in heavy traffic and at a busy intersection I started to smell fuel again and I got a "fuel system malfunction" displayed on the screen and the car died and would not start again. I had the vehicle towed only to be told that now the vehicle needs an in tank fuel pump replaced! not a few months after having all the fuel injectors repaired. The cost of replacing the fuel pump over $1900 but with a discount it would be approximately $1550. 00 (who knows what the cost will be when I go to pick it up). After some research, I found out that this year and model vehicle is under a recall from BMW for all the same exact problems and symptoms I'm having with the fuel pump. However, they claim that my VIN is not a part of the recall and they will not assist in any way. This is a low millage car that is well maintained at all times. I think its time BMW expanded the recall on the fuel pump issue for this vehicle and corrected the problem their design and manufacturing has created before their neglegance costs someone their life when the vehicle stops on the highway or a busy intersection. It's time you did the right thing BMW north America. I have contacted my attorney and we will be sending notices to other BMW owners with the same problem to join a class action law suit.

Prior to 4/3/2018 on approximately 4 different occasions, the vehicle started and idled rough. Engine was turned off and re-started and ran smooth. On 4/3/2018 the vehicle stalled while driving and in traffic and would not restart. All engine power was lost (no power steering, no forward motion) but all electrical functions were ok. Towed car to BMW dealer where they found (2) high pressure and (1) low pressure fuel pump failures which were replaced under extended warranty. No other issues were discovered through the inspection and repairs. On 5/22/2018 (pm) upon starting the vehicle it ran rough. We tried to stop and restart but it did not correct the problem. On 5/23/18 (am) the vehicle started properly and was taken into to the dealer to diagnose the problem. On each occasion noted above the display screen prompts with the drivetrain malfunction message, but checking the on-board vehicle status all systems are "ok". Reduced power and/or complete loss of power in a critical situation could prove to be disastrous. Considering the number of complaints and potential risk the factory should elevate this complaint to a recall status before someone is seriously hurt (if that hasn't already happened).
