[QUOTE="effierizal, post: 438725, member: 3374"] Dear Bimmers, UPDATE. My hunch was correct that the pump was the culprit. Yesterday after removing the rear seats, taking out the pump and testing it with a 12v source, no response whatsoever. Went to Bavarian Auto and bought brand new pump, putting it back in place and cranked the engine. Voila! it fires up at first start! Total damage; New Fuel Pump RM400 Hose Clip RM1.20 Towing to my house RM120 Labour DIY Lesson learnt; might thinking of having a spare pump for long distance travel later. Should any of you guys attempt to this on your own, please prepare a bucket nearby as fuel spill is inevitable..he..he..he.. For the next few days, I'll be high on petrol fumes. Joy is BMW! Cheers.
