I can't believe they went through all of that to confirm the humming. It is well documented that both types of fuel pumps have problems. At least they are going to fix it. I read of one person on one of these boards who have the humming, but it is not showing up on the diagnostics so they won't replace it. I asked my SA whether they went by noise, diagnostic equipment, or both and he said just the humming noise.
BMW said they plugged it in to diagnose without any fault codes found, but decided they will replace due to the noise. Glad it will be taken care off. They asked if I wanted to keep the loaner until Friday or Saturday and I opted to get my car back since it will just sit outside. Who knows it may get dinged by lot attendants. They said it is safe to drive around anyways.
