Looking to Buy 07 335 with HPFP Fail...NEED HELP PLEASE

1sik3 · 04-01-2010, 06:38 PM

I am currently selling my 325 and looking to get a used 335, but i was just reading the info and it said it was bought back by BMW because of the faulty HPFP.

Should I worry about this? Can someone explain what it is and is there a solution to fix it??

it probably failed multiple times, even though they replaced it and they just bought it back. No harm,it's just a hassle with these cars. Get used to it.

Am I constantly going to have problems with it if I buy it??

later models seem to have the constant issues. I just got software upgrade in my 09 and I do not see any issues. eh, its covered under warranty, what do i care.

not necessarily, but please do research this forum about people with a 335 and how often they are getting failed HPFP. For some, it's rare, but for the most part, when it starts, it doesnt stop.

Its insured for 10 yrs/120k miles, they have an updated HPFP that supposedly is better than the first, only time will tell. Its not a big deal, just something you deal with when it comes along.

Don't worry about it. Perform the right maintenance and the car should take care of you. (no guarantees!) haha.
