My car is now at AK place waiting for the inspection.
All the faulty might come from the accelaration sensor, although still need to be checked with the "Big Brain" first.
I will still keep the car for another 2 years after this, but if it still playing up.
Will probably trade in for a 2006 or 2007 7 series first,
then get a new/2nd hand F10, CLS, A7 or Panamera after 2 years time.

ricky some info on your friends cars with the 35i engine
ask BMWHK if they will extend the emissions warranty coverage period to 10 years or 120,000 miles
it is in the US but don't know if this count for HK or other places
BMW has discovered that certain 2007-2010 model year vehicles may experience partial failure of the High-Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) which is part of the direct fuel injection system on certain 1 Series, 3 Series, 5 Series, X6, and Z4 models. Specifically, vehicles powered by the twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-6 engine (internally dubbed "N54") are affected. Symptoms include long engine starting times and sometimes the illumination of the Service Engine Soon lamp in the instrument cluster, possibly accompanied by reduced engine performance (Fail Safe operation).

I finally got the time to pay a visit to my little storeroom, I found my old rubber floor mat (genuine BMW for E60), I remember it costs just under 1000 new from bmwhk (it was on special), I used it for less than 2 weeks, so say, I hope if I ask for 300, is not too much... It's now with AK, just pay him, it's yours.
