Thanks for all the input guys.

After some back and forth with BMW and some escalations with a BMW case manager, they have offered to pay 80% of the total cost of the fix. So roughly $3000 out of pocket. Then, as with all the BMW genuine parts, you get a two year warranty on all parts and labor that they change.

I figured I would be in it for 3-4k worth of parts to do the work myself, so I took them up on the offer. Complimentary loaner has been provided and they should have my car back on the road within the week.

This brings me to my next question...

What preventative maintenance are guys doing aside from a fuel additive (which I need to figure out which to use) and changing the HPFP on a set km interval?

Nice to see people are trying to come up with some system upgrades for water separators or screens to catch the grenade fragments... but nothing seems quite available yet.
