oh shiet the fuel pump mess up pretty bad on the e90s. I'm reading a thread on e90post and some people with 2011 e90s have their pump go out in less than 1k miles

mr.325i · 07-22-2010, 02:57 PM

Small world. I saw him too. On Westhiemer road by Bush Park around 7-7:30pm or something. Nice looking M.

Two sightings in one night. This must be a new record.

HPFP( High Pressure Fuel Pump) a very common problem for N54 engines. The pump seems to stop working all of a sudden and leaves you stranded on the side of the road. There are lots of complains about it on e90post

pinoybmr3 · 09-28-2010, 04:16 PM

^^if you buy 335 make sure it has a warranty to avoid headaches

jose325i · 09-28-2010, 07:03 PM

hmm I think I'll keep my 325 for now then lol the only problem it has given me in 3 years is the power steering pump. It has 68k miles, so I guess I'll upgrade later. Maybe I will wait another year or two so I can get a newer LCI 335

pinoybmr3 · 10-04-2010, 04:29 PM

^^that's what im doing, just use my e46 and buy a new car later....

jose325i · 10-04-2010, 07:48 PM

saw an f10 535i on the road today for the first time...looks amazing in person. I thought they were ugly at first, but they just look so menacing in person. I can only imagine how sick one with m-tech bumpers will look like

My only complaint is the rear...kinda looked like a lexus from far away, but it definitely looks good up close

Houston, anyone around, sober enough to write?

It's been a while since I visited these parts. Got some family in Houston and Port Arthur, but I don't get to come out and visit often.
