Need the proper BMW code, that is a 'generic' from a code reader.  It looks like fuel rail pressure.
:ant: Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.

Check the air intake boots for holes. When i say check i mean take them off and properly inspect them.

Great result. When I was looking at. 335i I was alarmed at the number of posts on different sites that were saying they were on their 3rd and fourth high pressure fuel pumps. Until I realised that a majority of them were from the US. Aparantly it's something to do with the amount of ehenol in their fuel is far greater than ours, and it eats away at the seals.
