Engine failure

KP22 · 06-15-2008, 10:07 AM

Hi,

I got this today for the second time. Engine sounds really weird and is very shaky? Last time the dealer said it is a temporary problem with the ignition and you can "reboot" the system by starting and stopping the motor three times, but this time it does not work.

Both times this happened the car has been in the garage for abot a week.

Ignition? Turbofailure (I refer to an EVO magazine´s long term 335 test or is it a fuel pump failure.

I have 11tkm and the car is 11 months young. Thanks.

Did Europe have the same problems as the US with the fuel pump? If so, that could be the culprit.

Fuel pump.

hi,

Thanks for your replies. When you had this fuel pump problem, did this engine malfunction go away after a while amd return again? I went today to the dealer to show it and of course the problem was not active aymore. They told me that they do not do any inspections under warranty if the problem is not active...

At least 300. Probably more than that, since they started delivering the N54. No-one uses the goddamn

function at all on this forum. If you eliminated all the pointless "oil change", "fuel pump", "AT vs. MT" threads, there wouldn't be anything to read...

Give me direct links you idiot if you think I can find the answer easily. There are too many results, as you said more than 300 threads, and not easy to find exact answer to my question.
