2024 BMW 5 Series / 7 Series Fuel Pump Delivery Stop

Important Warnings for Owners

BMW has issued Service Information Bulletin SIB 16 02 24 as a "DELIVERY STOP" for affected vehicles. This means that the repair must be performed on all affected vehicles before they are delivered to customers. If a customer has already taken delivery, the procedure should be performed the next time the vehicle is in the shop, provided the campaigns have a remedy available status. Otherwise, the vehicle may be released.

Owners should also be aware that this Service Action repair qualifies for an Alternative Mobility Solution (AMS). This means that owners may be eligible for expense reimbursement related to mobility during the repair process. Refer to SI B01 29 16 for additional information regarding AMS.

Symptoms

Owners of affected 2024 BMW 5 Series (G60) and 7 Series (G70) vehicles might experience several issues related to fuel delivery. These can include insufficient fuel flow due to a restriction in the low-pressure fuel line. This lack of adequate fuel supply, even for a short period, could potentially lead to preliminary damage to the high-pressure fuel pump.

In the event of a fault, drivers may notice a power reduction from the engine. Another observable symptom is "jerking" motions while driving, indicating an inconsistent fuel supply to the engine. If you experience any of these symptoms, your vehicle may be affected by the 2024 BMW 5 Series fuel pump delivery stop.

Cause

The root cause of these fuel delivery issues is a manufacturing defect in the flange lid of the fuel supply unit. Specifically, the flange lid has a reduced cross-section where the fuel feed line connects. This design flaw restricts the flow of fuel, leading to the symptoms described.

Repair Procedure Summary

The repair outlined in BMW Service Information Bulletin SIB 16 02 24 involves replacing two key components of the fuel system. Technicians will replace both the in-tank delivery unit and the high-pressure fuel pump.

This procedure follows specific BMW repair instructions. For the supply unit, technicians will refer to Repair Instruction 16 14 090, which details the removal and installation/replacement process. For the high-pressure pump, Repair Instruction 13 51 017 will guide the removal and installation. The repair also includes draining sufficient fuel for access and reinsertion of components.
