so im thinking of trading in my old 2oo3 tl for a 2007 335i.... now here lies the problem. why is this car so cheap ? ??? is the 4door really that much cheaper then the coupe ? good deal ? should i not pass up on it...

 

all Bmw 335I's had major problems with the fuel pump. And 2007 was the worst problem. might be on of the reason, other then that its a drivers car and its amazing.

 

hmmm thanks i will do some more research on that.... it looked like most of the sedans fall from 30 - 45 and the convertable is 45 and up. thanks though

 

i found a 2007 coupe with upper 20 000 miles and it was 30 000 something. 6speed. My car is paid of and its a 2005 Tl. so i dont feel like making payments anymore but i'd love to have one.

 

Not all of them. And the problem is not heavier with 2007's as the pump has not changed. It's depends on the type of gas you put into it for the most part. You want to try to avoid ethanol. People are going thousands of miles without problems as long as you are careful when you fill up. Avoid ethanol and always use 93/91. My 2007 has 14,000 and only need one fuel pump replacement (done by previous owner).

Also, BMW has extended the warranted on the fuel pump to 10 years or 100,000 miles. So even if something does go wrong, you are taken care of.

Another thing to be cautious about is whether or not your has the oil cooler. Not a major issue, but I'd rather have one that not.

 

I traded my 07 TL Typs-S for a 2008 335i sedan (loaded) it was a demo and they took 10k off the sticker. Just wanted a change and I am partial to rear wheel drive. The free maintenance covers everything except tires for 50k miles, now I do not see others car manufactures offering this service. Believe if you love to drive it and can buy or lease it, do it!!!
