Description of the problem	My 335i 2008 has had three recalls all related to the fuel system. With 24,000 miles it now has issues with starting. I recently have taken it back to my dealer,left it for four days, picked it up with "cannot duplicate customer complaint". In less than a week the start up has gone from three to five un,un,un,un,uns to crank. The car is about to go out of warranty and i believe that bmw knows there are serious problems and is refusing to repair until they are able to get repairs income. I guess i should have cancelled my special order when two weeks before delivery they called and said my car had arrived in us but would not be released due to "engine compression problems". All other issues i have asked to be repaired are not with dealer noting "cannot duplicate customer complaint". An accident waiting to happen. I have called and emailed bmw and dealer no one responded. And let's not even get to the tires!
