Welcome to the exciting world of the 335D.
Just drive it like you stole it.

If you intend to keep it just make sure you get the extended warranty.

Cheers

Re: My D also sufffers from Fuel Injector syndrome!

Thanks PL.
If it'll stay trouble free for another 100,000 km I'd be a happy camper.

I've decided to only use Shell V-Power Diesel from now on.

They've driven over 100 km and no SES and I've so far driven another 80 km.
I hoped that it's finally fixed.

Is your D unable to start after the 1,000 miles DEF non-start warning was ignored?

Re: My D also sufffers from Fuel Injector syndrome!

I'll find out tomorrow.




Thanks SpeedyD.
Hope this is the last I see of the SES.
What puzzles me is that with all these SES my D still drives like normal without any loss of power.

Re: Have you/Do you plan to keep your 335d out of warranty?

From my current ongoing issues with the D, if I were to do it again, I wouldn't keep it beyond the warranty.

@135_vs. Yikes! With all them parts replaced and your D is still not fixed!
Clearly BMW hasn't a clue how to solve our D's issues.
This is very disheartening.
