Got a call from the dealer saying that they have to replace the electric fuel pump on my 530d.

I think it's a 525d, 530d and 535d thing ...

Anyone with some information please ?

I'm getting tired of these recalls ..... and 6 months from now the warranty is finish... then what ??

What year/month is your car? You mention you have 6 months left on your warranty but that would make it May 2003 on a std BMW 3 yr warranty. Or do you only get 2yrs? Therefore a May 04 car!

The problem for the car produced between 11/04 and 01/05 was regarding the mechanical injection pump.

Is there an electric fuel pump?

Mine was produced in 28th April 2004, delivered 1st June 2004.

I think there is an electric pump that pumps the fuel from the tank to the engine ...? Not the engine pump i think ...

The warranty around here is 2 years.

Probably not many affected as your dealer contacted you by phone. When BMW have a big recall its usually a letter directly from BMW themselves!
