Gotta go read the codes..
A dead or dying fuel pump will not give any codes. The only code you will get from a weak fuel pump is a lean condition since the quantity of fuel being pumped will give you a lean condition. Like I posted before get a fuel pressure gauge and verify the pressure in the fuel rail.

Were the last two pumps that were replaced BMW OE or some cheap made in China Crap?
