Bottom of gas pedal broke off!? NEED HELP!

venom3469 · 10-24-2011, 09:26 AM

So I was getting in my car after a good night of drinking. (not drunk) My right foot hit the side of the gas pedal and snapped off.

Does anyone know if it can simply be fixed at BMW or if a after market pedal set fix this? I need a whole new gas pedal I guess. Anyone know how to get a whole new gas pedal?

This is a bummer and makes extremely hard to drive right now. Its just kinda dangling around right now... Any advice would be much appreciated.

I've never heard of that happening before. I'd see if they would change it under warranty since it shouldn't just break off.

The gas pedal is EASILY changed though. It is one screw at the bottom and one hook at the top, then there is one wire to undo. If you search in the DIY section, look for the one for installing Stainless Steel Pedals (maybe it's time to upgrade to them anyway).

Good luck

Idk why it didn't show my message right from my I phone but anyway. I guess I need the parts 1-3 but I hope it covered under my warrenty at bmw. The only thing is the closets one to my house is an hour and a half away... Also if I take it to bmw should I remove my tune for coming in for something like this?

Under Warranty and Road Side Assistance!!

Should I take off the tune or just put it in valet mode?

That's my free pedal. I really wasn't looking to ship but PM and we can work out something. Probably be about $10 to ship it (which is way cheaper than a new one from real OEM). It is from a 2007 335i sedan, so maybe cross reference that against real OEM's part numbers and let me know.
