X6 engine fault warning light

Had my X6 35i in for 5th time for "engine Fault" ...State dealer started with replacement of Vacuum hose, then box of hoses, then refit hose which fell off (so they say) then pressure regulator, then $600 part not sure what, finally they checked fuel pressure and replaced fuel pump.
By the 4th visit I am getting annoyed ,,,spent $1100 on parts not necessary so BMW did the pump free which they costed at $1000. So $2000, about 4 weeks in and out of BMW 5 times, 2 weeks off road and its the pump. Not impressed with mechanics in Perth or their weegie board. Just put my money down on an Audi A6 Allroad, simply because BMW cant diagnose a problem with their vehicles...and they are the experts in WA

PS..Engine fault light came on under moderate acceleration/load..........seems to be fixed now with new pump but not willing to take any more chances with other problems which are likely to arise on 77,000 km vehicle which I have owned since new and maintained 100%...History is 2 break downs/ tows, HP fuel pump 10,000km ..brake auto hold failure and brakes seized at 65,000km and now LP fuel pump at 77,000km.

PS injectors done under BMW recall about 60,000km
