Hello Maza454,

Thank you for your comments. Do you know if anyone attempted to study these problems scientifically? For example, has BMW Brazil ascertained using technical evidence what is causing the injector problems? I have not heard of injector problems being common here in the US. Certainly it could be the extra ethanol. But there are other differences, too, such as weather (it's hotter in Brazil, on average), or possibly other contaminants in the fuel that can get by the fuel filter and cause problems in the injectors...has anybody determine if there are any sugar molecules in the ethanol that is blended in with the gas?
