problem #1

May 292003

M3 6-cyl

  • 3,200 miles
The fuel gauge reads empty when tank is full. After investigating loud noises from the trunk area, I discovered that the gas tank has imploded, and the components within have been destroyed. I have taken it to the dealer four times, and everytime they think they corrected the problem, soon again the same thing happens.
