My assumption is that you verified, by driving hard and easy, that the replacement pump eliminated the symptoms you were having? And, as I understand the current codes were not there when you checked for codes before?

If that is the case, I suggest the first step is to check fuel pressure as the symptoms are the same as before you changed the fuel pump. I asked about junk in tank because that would be higher probability than the replacement pump doing the same thing, especially since it worked fine for a reasonable amount of time.

The less likely possibility is that the pump performance was a symptom caused by something else not associated with the replacement. That would mean the symptoms went away even though you addressed the wrong cause, IMO that doesn't make sense.

Possibly, but there are no transmission codes currently. Unless I download a BMW specific software to check.
