The high pressure fuel pump (HPFP) has been a huge problem with BMW. Google "BMW HPFP" or "BMW 335 Fuel Pump". You will see Porsche is not alone in this regard. Direct Injection is great -- but they really haven't worked out all of the kinks in the technology for the fuel pump. BMW ended up extending the warranty significantly on the 335. Some of the 335s have gone through multiple fuel pumps, and the really sad thing is that the new part is just as flawed as the old part (design issue).

Hopefully Porsche has a better track record...but then again...

Good luck with your car.
