I don't have the exact information to hand and am going by the word of someone else who only had a quick scan of the recall notice, so I may not be 200% accurate, but I believe it's close enough. I will try to get the exact information tomorrow.

What I know so far is that there is no 'recall' as such, just a workshop service order as Dr Dave has pointed out. Recalls are limited to very serious items, normally linked to major mechanical failure or a failure in one of the safety systems.

The advisory I believe is something to do with the air filter - if the current part installed falls within a certain part index number, then it requires replacement to a modified part. I believe that this service advisory will only be implemented when the car is due in for service or if a car goes into an official BMW workshop for other work to be done.
