D's Bimmer · 03-30-2013, 08:14 AM

I had this recall done last week. All good

P-rex · 03-30-2013, 10:04 AM

I'm at the dealership now.... Had an appointment at 10am booked two weeks ago and the crackhead SA tells me that the 2 hour labor service will be ready by end of day since they are busy..... Told the dude to politely fly a kite.... And get it down by noon... Str8 da fun up....

I hate dealership service

RNE90 · 03-30-2013, 01:12 PM

I think I have this problem but will the dealer say anything about my ecu intake and what not

BRAISKI · 03-30-2013, 02:16 PM

Nope

Nope. No problems. I had mine done with intake and JB4 on the car.

OwnAge · 03-30-2013, 08:04 PM

Yep, got it too. No problems with the car tho

mabman · 03-31-2013, 07:34 AM

Got it done at Parkview last week. In/out no problem and all covered under warranty ... no upsell and free shuttle service.

abhishriv · 03-31-2013, 12:29 PM

yup got it this past week. will take it in soon with all mods on haha

nitehawk · 03-31-2013, 03:08 PM

If I'm not mistaken, this is for cars built after 3/07?

CarbonTT · 03-31-2013, 08:10 PM

Had the recall done last week .. no issues

alexx03 · 03-31-2013, 08:47 PM

guys ive been wondering this since ive bought my car this summer,what is the process for me going in to get this recall done and any future ones if i am not the original owner?

ASPEC135i · 03-31-2013, 09:32 PM

Got mine today. Don't know when I'll be taking it in. Existingly, there are a few minor pesky items ive wanted to go into dealership for, but never found the time to get around doing it (ie side mirror not tilting upon reverse gear).

Town&Country's shop was undergoing construction the last time I went, a few months ago, effecting their work efficiency - does anyone know if that has it been completed?

Go to any BMW w/ your ownership and tell them you are now the new current owner of the vehicle. They will upload your information onto their db and send you any relevant info (ie recalls)

alexx03 · 03-31-2013, 11:40 PM

awesome thanks man!

dlando · 04-01-2013, 09:19 PM

Just received the letter in the mail this morning. Scheduled an appointment to have it done first thing Thursday morning.

thung_mail · 04-01-2013, 11:36 PM

will bmw be fixing this failure at no cost, rite ?

domrep · 04-02-2013, 06:33 AM

^ Yes no cost. Phone up any dealership and give them your VIN # and they will schedule an appt for you. I went to downtown toronto bmw with full mods, mods are fine. Just make sure to turn your tune off though since they're resetting/pulling the battery for some cars.

MAZINGER · 04-02-2013, 06:39 PM

How long does it take to repair? Will they erase some custom coding to the car such as mirrors fold when locking the car?

tianism · 04-02-2013, 08:08 PM

I have mine booked next week. Apparently takes 3 hours to get the job done. What the hell am I gonna do during that 3 hours in the dealership...

CalgaryX3 · 04-02-2013, 08:34 PM

Can someone who has actually had this recall done confirm what all is involved? I've read everything from splicing a wire in the trunk near the battery and adding a new connector (simple) to removing the glovebox, front passenger seat and door sill trim (not too keen on that).

Information abound on the internet; some real-life anecdotal experiences would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Asif
