Yeah I had a lil look online and it seems it is a comman problem, shall remove the pump Monday, check which of the two it is and order in.
New wheels arrive to Monday for it, best get the pump fitted ASAP. The pump wont like turning big wheels
At least the pump is an easy change - best bet is to buy a BMW genuine one from the dealers - that way if it fails again, it is still under warranty even if you fit it yourself

Oh nice one I shall call them in a sec and get a price on that then.
Only showing one listed on realoem.com - altho to be fair, it doesn't actually show it on the touring model (shows the pump but doesn't give details) so I checked against the coupe and saloon and they both come back with that pump for 99-01 which is the only years the 328i touring was in production
Whip it off to check the numbers is best - easily done, get the engine tray off the bottom and access is a doddle from under the car - about 30 mins to get the pump off - just make sure you slacken the pully bolts off before taking the belt off otherwise you'll struggle a bit
