Car Broke Down

MrBEEF · 12-10-2011, 03:48 PM

Guys,

I was doing normal errands, and car started performing poorly...seemed likecylinder vibration. Got a check engine light.

Busted out the BT Tool, here is what it said:

1) 29DC: Cylinder Injection Switch Off
2) 2FBF: Fuel Pressure at injection release
3) 29F2: Fuel high pressure system, fuel pressure

** This leads me to believe my fuel pump is toast...I BARELY made it home..as I was close...sort of makes sense based on codes.

I know this is a common problem with our cars. My car has 64K miles, and was purchase certified pre-owned, so I have the 100K mile warranty.

Questions:
- Is this a correct assessment of my engine issue?

- I assumed I'll have no problems with coverage, but just checking?

- I doubt my car will make it to a BMW place. So I'll have to tow it. Do they cover towing is this covered under warranty?

Thanx,
-Peter

Yes just press the sos button and BMW will arrange for a tow truck to pick you up. You never get a bill

Those 3 codes in combination together are certain the HPFP is toast.
