Looking through this thread, people have had their HPFP replaced and some have even had the injectors replaced. My HPFP was last replaced with an 881 pump back in Dec 09. Does anybody know what determines what gets replaced / reprogrammed on the car as part of this recall?

I have been expecting to receive a letter from BMW but haven't heard anything. Mine is a 2007 e90 Sept 06 build, and like you I had my HPFP replaced with the 881 pump in December 09 after being notified of the initial recall. I had my software updated in October 2010 when my car was towed to my dealership due to a fuel leak of the high pressure inlet pipe.
Reading through the 3 TSB's related to this Recall Campaign I am at a loss why my car wouldn't qualify to get the HPFP replaced with the latest version.
I suspect BMW is chasing their tail and is overwhelmed by this whole situation. The only official information we have is what is in the TSB's and the related customer letters. BMW, in their infinite wisdom has now pulled the plug and we no longer have access to TSBs, at least without having to pay to access them. These TSB's have been freely available on the bmwtis website for years and now BMW changed that. Coincidence? I think not.
