2007 335i - So of course, I just replaced the fuel pressure regulator (housing was cracked and leaking) and the battery, only to have my HPFP go out a week later. Car just died in the middle of the highway with no warnings and it won't restart. Code is P142E $0018Pd (not sure what that $-code is). SES light came on too. Could it be the controller or anything else, or is it 100% the HPFP?
Worst part is car won't even limp, it just died on the highway while driving in rush hour traffic. Super convenient, super safe! I would hope that everyone that has a failure reports it to the NHTSA here:

If we don't report these problems, they won't get dealt with. An extended warranty up to 120k is ridiculous for a 13 year old car with a problem that can cause you to suddenly lose all power without warning.
