I would suggest leak back, maybe just temporary leak back due to some disturbed grit during the service.

If my pumps have not been changed since new, they are up at around 107Kmiles.

So the BMW pump is the same unit as the 75/ZT twin pump diesel ITP?
If so, that's not been widely discussed before and clearly cheaper than the usual after market ones.

I had the same for the last couple of days with the car taking longer to fire up, but today when i used the car it seemed Ok. Fingers crossed.

Was the fuel filter changed during the service? I found that mine was a little reluctant to start initially after changing the filter.

Update.. the car has been fine ever since, so presumably it was a hiccup due to muck in the fuel or something...

Hope so James but for future reference if the difficult starting returns Hogweed had a similar intermittent fault and it turned out to be the ECM, sorted by Brian and his wand.

The Origianl OEM pumps (white top not black copies) vary vastly from failing at 50k to lasting 150k miles.

Same goes for the original Intank pumps too.

Brands to avoid
We've tried a few.

PWM
ENERGY

My pump is fine now, it was just noisy for a couple of days at the time was all.

No prob Jules as you fitted the pumps for me ages ago and they are fine.
