THE DEALER THEN REPLACED THE INJECTOR AND AGAIN BELIEVED THIS FIXED THE PROBLEM BUT IT DID NOT. THE DEALER THAN REPLACED THE DME. THE DEALER THINKS THIS NOW FIXES THE PROBLEM, BUT I AM NOT CONVINCED.

BMW 135I 2009 car safety problem was reported on Apr 09, 2009.BMW 135I 2009, manufactured by BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . I HAVE A 2009 BMW 335I COUPE (NO 335I OPTION WAS AVAILABLE IN THIS FORM). I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE AND WAS AT A SLOW PACE DUE TO TRAFFIC (AROUND 35MPH), ONCE IT CLEARED I ACCELERATED AGGRESSIVELY AND IMMEDIATELY WENT INTO LIMP MODE (POWER REDUCTION, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT). I WOULD PRESS THE ACCELERATOR ALL THE WAY DOWN ONLY TO HEAR THE ENGINE REVVING WHILE I WAS GOING NOWHERE. I PULLED THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON. I GOT NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND THE CAR SEEMED FINE. I DROVE TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACE THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP (HPFP). THEY TOLD ME THAT THE HPFP WAS REPLACED WITH AN UPDATED ONE BUT I DON'T BELIEVE THIS ONE BIT DUE TO FRIENDS HAVING UP TO 3 HPFP FAILURES OF THE SAME YEAR (OR NEWER) OF THE SAME CAR. *TR.Mileage was 5785 miles.

BMW 135I 2009 car safety problem was reported on Jan 15, 2010.BMW 135I 2009, manufactured by BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . EVEN THOUGH IT SHOWS A BMW 135 ON THE VEHICLE DESCRIPTION THIS IS FOR 2009 BMW 335I, IT DOES NOT HAVE THAT CHOICE ON THE MENUS. ALSO I DID NOT INCLUDE THE VIN NUMBER BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS STILL IN GERMANY AND HAS NEVER BEEN REGISTERED IN THE USA.. AT LEAST UNTIL THIS APRIL WHEN I GET BACK THERE IF I DON'T GET RID OF IT BEFORE THEN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH ON ANY SURFACE, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE VEHICLE WOULD GO ON "SAVE MODE" LOOSING POWER. THE WARNING INDICATOR REMAINED LIT UNTIL THE ENGINE TURNED OFF. THIS WILL HAPPEN ALL THE TIME... THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER AND AFTER A WEEK OF TROUBLESHOOTING AND CONTACTING BMW IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE HP FUEL PUMP WAS THE PROBLEM AND IT WAS REPLACED. THREE MONTHS LATER THE CAR STARTED TO TAKE TOO LONG TO START WHEN COLD SO BACK TO THE DEALER AND IT'S BEEN THERE FOR OVER A WEEK AND THE LAST UPDATE I RECEIVED WAS THAT THEY MIGHT HAVE TO CHANGE THE FUEL PUMP AGAIN. THIS IS A BRAND NEW CAR BUILT IN APRIL 2009 WHICH I PICKED UP AT BMW HERE IN GERMANY WITH US SPECS. THE CAR HAS AROUND 7K MILES.*CW *TR.Mileage was 6500 miles.

THE CAR WAS RUNNING VERY ROUGHLY AND SHOOK AND SHUDDERED VIOLENTLY WHEN I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR....I WAS UNABLE TO MAINTAIN A VEHICLE SPEED ABOVE 50MPH. I FINALLY HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AND LET TRAFFIC PASS. WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN PARK IT WAS STILL SHAKING AND HEAVING. I REPORTED THIS IMMEDIATELY TO THE BMW SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHERE I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE. WHILE I WAS TOLD IT WAS DUE TO THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP, I WAS TOLD THAT BMW WAS UNABLE TO OFFER ANY RESOLUTION AT THIS TIME. SINCE THEN, THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES, EACH TIME IN HEAVY RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. I FEEL THAT THIS IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE AND IS LIKELY GOING TO RESULT IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. BMW IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND YET SEEMS TO BE UNABLE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. MANY OTHER OWNERS OF THE 135I, 335I AND 535I HAVE REPORTED SIMILAR INSTANCES.
