Consumer Description

MY BMW HAS BEEN HAVING ISSUES SINCE AROUND 40,000 MILES AND I FINALLY JUST FOUND OUT THAT THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMPS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. IT SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING TO ALL OF THE 760 BMW'S AT AROUND 40-50K MILES. BMW IS TAKING NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS TYPE IN 2003, 2004 OR 2005 760LI BMW AND THE FIRST THING THAT POPS UP IS THE HPFP. THAT SHOULD GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF HOW MANY OF THESE CARS ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE. THERE AREN'T MANY OF THESE MADE AND IT SEEMS LIKE MOST OF THEM ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE. BMW ENDED UP HAVING TO DO A RECALL FOR THERE NEXT MODELS FOR THE FUEL PUMPS AND IT LOOKS LIKE OUR MODELS SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED TOO. THE REPLACEMENT COST ON THESE PARTS ARE $4K PER HPFP AND THERE ARE 2 IN THE 760'S. *TR
