Service Action: Replace the High-Pressure Pump

MODEL
E90, E92, and E93 with the N54 engine produced from 06/01/2006 through 10/28/2006

SITUATION
An internal component in the high-pressure pump (HDP) may fail, causing drivability symptoms such as longer starting times or erratic engine operation. It may also lead to a premature failure of the HDP on
vehicles at higher mileages.

Should this situation occur, the HDP emergency operation is activated and the Service Engine Soon lamp (MIL) is illuminated.

Note:
In this situation, the vehicle can continue to be driven, even for long distances, without any risk of breakdown.

AFFECTED VEHICLES
This Service Action involves E90, E92 and E93 vehicles with N54 engines which were produced from 06/01/2006 through 10/28/2006.

In order to determine whether a specific vehicle is affected by this Service Action, it will be necessary to utilize the "Service Menu" of DCSnet (Dealer Communication System) or the Key Reader. Based on the
response of the system, either proceed with the corrective action or take no further action.

PROCEDURE
