HPFP #4 and counting

I own a 335i E92 2007 model.
Changed first HPFP on 50000 km, got a recall announcement from BMW Greece for another change in HPFP on October 2010.
Car went on kind of a limp mode 2 weeks ago, no lights on dash but the car was struggling to accelerate beyond 3000 rpm.
Took it to dealer and they said it was HPFP failure and they changed it again.
Now after 2 days from service the car did it again with exactly the same symptom.

Could it be something else or the pump failed again in 2 days?

I'm more than furious with BMW and so much dissapointed with their shitty products and service dealers.
This will be my last car from BMW and I'm moving on to Japanese undying engines through a Nissan GTR.

Enough is enough !!!!
Fix, recall, or do something with your cars or this might be your tombstone as a company.

Sorry to hear about your problems. The fact that they changed it out and it didn't fix your troubles points to it being something else - plugs, coils, injectors, vanos solenoid...I think the blame also lies with your dealership as they don't seem to be competent enough to properly diagnose the problem (which is no one-off, loads of people here have the same troubles).

Crossing fingers you get it sorted.

Nissan GT-R has its own troubles though, as you can read in the dedicated forums about that car.

Ya that really stinks bring it to another Bmw dealer if possible..I have 2007 with nearly 40000 miles original HPFP. And have not ever had a problem Wouldnt jump to conclusion hard to find the combination of driving experience with cost with usability...and class.

Forgot to mention that I've changed injectors, plugs and vanos solenoid 2 months ago as I got the engine light on dash on a fast ride to a nearby city.
I'm almost in a state of fear when I want to step on the accelerator for a fast ride, knowing that I would end up in the car dealer for a week or so.
