In the 300ZX, nothing happened - less than normal acceleration but also no shutdown; in the BMW it went into low power mode with painfully limited acceleration.

My x6 was produced in early May 2008. You should check the forums for other BMW models using the same engine for more info - I recall seeing something on it there a while back.
BMW extended the warranty on the HPFP to 10 years/120k miles.

However is is only for 2007/2008, 135/335/535 models with N54 engine. X6 is not included.

If enough X6's have the issue, they will most likely be included as well.
