[QUOTE="scott degroot, post: 1014211, member: 66039"] Yeah the newer 550s have the turbo setup, forgot about that. Even after the recall on injectors and high pressure fuel pumps they are still having issues though. What BMW really needs to do is figure out a way to stop the intake valves from carboning up with their direct injection setup. Lexus is about the only mfg that has solved this issue in that they use regular injection and also direct injection. The regular injection still sprays fuel at the backside of the intake valves so buildup is a non issue and when you need the power the direct injection kicks in. I really love Bimmers as this is my 4th but their engineering is starting to borderline NASA but hey someone has to lead the field [/QUOTE]
