2008 BMW 328I Fuelpropulsion System Problems

The vehicle, stopped while driving, overheating, no heat/ ac. It's winter, car stopped at night in an unknown location fory safety. Had it inspected by 2 different auto shops and was confirmed of the issue. Warning lights came on right before the car failed.

ON ALL E90 SERIES 3 (2008 BMW 328i), the PCV VALVE FAILS AND IS WELDED INTO THE VALVE COVER, THUS IF IT LEAKS OR GETS CRACKS IN THE ORANGE MEMBRANE, IT WILL CAUSE CAR TO STALL.. I ALMOST CRASHED 2x and this part should be recalled..IT AFFECTS THE FUEL AIR RATIO IN BMW E90, AND THE CAR WILL RUN LEAN AND NOT RECEIVE ENOUGH GAS AS AIR IS LEAKING FROM THE BROKEN MEMBRANE IN THE PVC VALVE. BMW WILL THROW ENGINE CODES WITH LIT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON DASH. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AS THE WHOLE VALVE COVER HAS TO BE REPLACED TO REPLACE A DEFECTIVE $10 PCV VALVE WHICH IS LUDICROUS...THE DEALER CHARGES thousand dollars and up to replace a ten dollar part. THE CAR HAS ROUGH IDLE AND WILL STALL, CREATING A DANGEROUS DRIVING SITUATION AND FATAL ACCIDENT . PLEASE RECALL to HAVE BMW DEALER FIX ThESE...

The plastic power pieces that goes over the battery melted. Ever since then I have had electrical problems. My concern is when that pieces melted it could have caused a fire. I dint even know it melted till I started have electrical problems and had to look at my battery. As far as the fuel problems I have a n51 and from what I understand the parts for it are hard to find I would like to know more about the bmw 15yr/150,000 mile warrenty that the bmw forms are talking about

THE LINES THAT ARE INSIDE THE FUEL PUMP CAME OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND THE CAR STOPPED WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. MY MECHANICS HAD THE EXACT SAME MODEL CAR HAVE THE SAME EXACT ISSUE AND WHEN THEY CALLED BMW FOR THE PARTS THE SERVICE GUY KNEW EXACTLY WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. THEY SEE IT ALL THE TIME IN THIS PARTICULAR MODEL AND BMW STATES THAT SINCE YOU DON'T HAVE ANY RECALL ON IT THAT THEY WILL NOT FIX MY CAR WITHOUT ME PAYING FOR IT. THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED TWO TIMES TO ME AND IT IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD TO HAVE THE CAR JUST STOP WHILE DRIVING. CAN YOU PLEASE SEE IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER COMPLAINTS THAT ARE SIMILAR TO MINE? ACCORDING TO MY MECHANIC THE BMW SERVICE CENTER HAS THE PARTS ON HAND BECAUSE THEY SEE THIS PROBLEM SO OFTEN IN THIS PARTICULAR...

FUEL PUMP JUST STOPPED WORKING; IT FIRST STOPPED WORKING WHILE OPERATING THE CAR THEN STARTED BACK UP WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL. THE FACT IT DID THIS WHILE I WAS DRIVING WAS TERRIFYING. THEN ONCE I STOPPED AND PARKED IT DID NOT START BACK UP. THE CAR STARTER ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE BUT AN ERROR CAME UP ON THE SCREEN REGARDING A FUEL PUMP FAILURE.

MY VEHICLE HAS 2 ACTIVE RECALLS (CAMPAIGN #17V-676 AND 17V-683) BOTH OF WHICH AFFECT THE MOTOR AND CAN RESULT IN FIRE TO THE VEHICLE. WE HAVE ALREADY EXPERIENCED MELTING PARTS MAKING THE VEHICLE INOPERABLE

I RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE FOR AIRBAG, PCP VALVE HEATER,AND BLOWER MOTOR WIRING. IN 2013-2015 MY BMW WAS SHAKING HEAVILY AND SCARILY WHILE DRIVING AND SITTING AT RED LIGHTS. I SPENT $5,306 OVER 5 DIFFERENT BILLS FROM 4/1/2013 THROUGH 12/18/2015 WHICH I WILL ATTACH. AS OF TODAY, 2/26/2018 THE CAR IS AT THE SHOP AND A NUMBER OF ISSUES WERE PRESENTED INCLUDING SPARK PLUG IGNITION, POWER STEERING IN 3 POINTS (RESERVOIR SUCTION HOSE, FLUSH FLUID), REAR DIFFERENTIAL, PINION SEAL, BOTH AXLE SEALS, NEEDED RESEAL AND REBUILT, MOTOR VALVE COVERS, LEAK IN SUSPENSION, AND ADDITIONAL ISSUES I COULD BARELY KEEP UP WITH WRITING DOWN AS THE MECHANIC WAS SPEAKING THEM OVER THE PHONE. HE ESTIMATE $4,800 (THIS WAS MIDAS, IT WOULD BE MORE AT THE ROCKVILLE BMW IN ROCKVILLE MD).

VEHICLE STOPPED DEAD IN MIDDLE OF ROAD. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN IT STOPPED. CATASTROPHIC FUEL PUMP FAILURE, PER MECHANIC. NO RECALL IN SYSTEM FOR THIS MODEL, BUT FIGURED IT SHOULD BE REPORTED.

THIS IS WELL-DOCUMENTED ON BMW FORUMS. THE ADAPTIVE DRIVER MEMORY LOGIC CAUSES A THROTTLE LAG OF UP TO 1 SECOND. THIS LAG CAN BE TEMPORARILY ELIMINATED BY RESETTING THE THROTTLE BODY ADAPTION. THE UNNECESSARY THROTTLE LAG CAUSES AN UNNECESSARY SAFETY HAZARD BY DELAYING THE CAR'S THROTTLE RESPONSE. BMW SHOULD ISSUE A SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT ALLOWS OWNERS TO PERMANENTLY DISABLE OR LOCK DOWN THE FEATURE. THE PROBLEM HAPPENS MAINLY WHEN THE CAR IS STOPPED AN IN-GEAR. WHEN THE DRIVER DEPRESSES THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE COMPUTER DELAYS THE SIGNAL TO THE THROTTLE BODY BY UP TO 1 SECOND. THIS DELAY INCREASES THE LIKELIHOOD OF A COLLISION BY CAUSING AN THE CAR TO UNNECESSARILY RESPOND IN A MANNER THAT IS DIFFERENT FROM THE DRIVER'S INTENT. THERE IS A 5-STEP PROCEDURE THAT OWNERS CAN FOLLOW TO TEMPORARILY RESET THE THROTTLE BODY ADAPTION, BUT THE COMPUTER EVENTUALLY RE-LEARNS THE UNSAFE BEHAVIOR. BMW HAS REFUSED TO...

ATTENTION: BMW CUSTOMER RELATIONS ON, SATURDAY, 01/02/2016, AT APPROXIMATELY 6:30PM MY WIFE AND I WERE DRIVING ON THE FORT HAMILTON PKWY IN BROOKLYN, NY IN MY BMW 328I CONVERTIBLE. WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MILES PER HOUR MY CAR SUDDENLY STOP COMPLETELY IN THE MIDDLE TO TRAFFIC. IN ORDER TO EXIT OFF THE HIGHWAY SAFELY, I ALLOWED THE CAR TO ROLL TO REDUCE SPEED THEN USE THE HAND BRAKE IT TO STOP THE CAR COMPLETELY AT THE NEAREST EXIT, EXT # 5. AFTER EXITING I CALLED THE TOWING COMPANY. IT APPEARED THAT THIS INCIDENT WAS THE RESULT A FUEL PUMP FAILURE ON MY 2008 BMW 328XI WHICH ACCORDING TO THE MECHANIC BURNT THE CONTROL MODULE WHICH CAUSED THE ENGINE TO SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY. FUEL TANK FAILURE IS A HAZARDOUS CONDITION AND GIVEN THE FACT THAT A FUEL PUMP FAILURE RESULTS IN AN IMMEDIATE LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, POWER STEERING, AND POWER...

MY CAR WAS IN MOTION AND IT STALLED IN MIDDLE OF FREEWAY WITHOUT ANY WARNING ! IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP THAT HAD FAILED ! BMW ALREADY HAS RECALLED MANY MODELS FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. WHY PUT THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE'S LIVES IN DANGER AND NOT RECALL THE 2008 328I ALSO WHEN THEY ARE ALREADY AWARE OF THIS FUEL PUMP FAILURE ?

THE CAR USE TAKE A LOOK A LONG TIME TO START NOW IT'S NOT STARTING AT ALL IT JUST MAKES NOISE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING, ATTEMPTING TO PASS A VEHICLE, I PRESS THE ACCELERATOR AND THE PEDAL HAD NO RESPONSE AND THE RPMS DROPPED. AFTER TRYING TO ACCELERATE, THE ENGINE DIES AND I DRIFT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD ATTEMPTING TO DODGE TRAFFIC AS THE CAR'S GAS PEDAL IS NOT RESPONDING. UPON PULLING OVER SAFELY, NEARLY HITTING CARS ALONG THE WAY I COME TO STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE CAR THEN NO LONGER STARTS. CRANKING CAN BE HEARD BUT ENGINE DOES NOT TURN OVER OR START. HAD IT REPAIRED, THE REASON IS A FUEL PUMP FAILURE, FUEL PUMP MODULE FAILURE, AND BLOWN FUSE ON FUEL PUMP. CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND COST TO REPAIR IS $1,800 AND A RISK TO MY SAFETY. *TR
