    I purchased a 5 series and in 1 year of ownership, the timing chain has failed. The car has 78k miles on it. The drive train error message popped up before, took it to the BMW dealer n no word of my timing chain needing work. 3 months later, timing chain fails. Is there a recall for the Timing...

    Anyone familiar with the recall that came out today / (stop sale until fixed issue) on some X7's? We were waiting for paperwork and they found out this recall happened literally while we were there. They were unable to do the lease paperwork until it's fixed; waiting to hear back. :)

    Hello, Today i have picked up my BMW from the dealership, they changed the EGR cooler and apparently, there was a dry coolant spot on the EGR valve, they said that it needs to be changed(but they asked for 400 euros for that). BMW 430D N57T 2017/06 MFD Facelift I will buy the OE part...

    Just curious if anyone knows if Carfax reports the N63 recall service or not. I've checked a few pLCI cars out of curiosity but haven't seen it in the report. Perhaps the only way to know is to call BMW directly?
  7. E60 / E61 (2004 - 2010)
    Just got my 2007 BMW 530XI Wagon back from the dealer, had the PCV valve heater replaced. Overall they did a good job, car is running much better now. I recently got a code for O2 sensors malfunctioning, dealer told me it would be at least 200 for the sensors plus labour. So I have a couple...
  8. E60 / E61 (2004 - 2010)
    Greetings! I received an email a few days ago from my local BMW dealership because there's an open recall on 2006 530xi. The recall name: POSITIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION(PCV) VALUE HEATER. Visit your bmwusa.com to see if your BMW is on the recall list.
  9. BMW i3 I01 (2014 - 2020)
    Well I've had my 2017 BEV almost exactly 2 years now and love it. I never worried too much about the airbag recall, being neither I nor my partner are females under 5'2" and 110 pounds or whatever the details were that prompted the recall. But I recently moved to Vista (near San Diego) and after...
  10. E90/E91/E92/E93 (2006 - 2013)
    I took my car to the dealership after my blower motor stopped working and I found out about the recall. Dealership is saying my motor was unaffected, and that my wires are burnt to hell but somehow has no impact on the non-functional blower motor and they're refusing to replace it. What can I do...
  11. F30 / F31 / F32 / F33 / F34 / F36 (2012 - current)
    Hello Bimmerfest devout and faithful, It's been quite some time since I've posted or read on Bimmerfest.com... I've long since been parted with my 2004 E46 330ci (loved that car) but am reuniting with a 2016 340i that is decked out to the nines. Below is the link...

    :thumbdwn: Check your coolant expansion tank regularly; if it goes low for no apparent reason, (like mine did twice), get the motor to a dealership & have them diagnose the EGR cooler "regardless" of whether you have had a notice letter or not! At the time, I hadn't had a letter, but I insisted...
  13. E90/E91/E92/E93 (2006 - 2013)
    Hello - yesterday I took my 2009 E90 328i in for the PCV recall and blower motor wiring recalls. They had my car for most of the day but I had a loaner so I was in no rush. This morning I was looking in the engine bay and there is still an undisturbed patina of light dust uniformly over the...
  14. F10 / F11 (2011 - 2016)
    Last year I was advised of the above recall when in for service and made the appointment for the fix the following week when the part came in. Of course, the housing failed a couple of days later and I headed off the interstate in limp mode as oil poured out of my car. I had it towed to the...
  15. Ask-A-BMW-Dealer
    Anyone at a dealership or close to one know this? Was looking to upgrade 2010 328xi and when the dealer came back with a trade value, said that the airbag open (not completed yet) recall reduces the amount willing to give us. I told them we got the notification in the mail, but not to do...
  16. E82 / E87 / E88 / F20 1 Series (2008 - 2014)
    Our 2011 128i started idling hard and squealing after driving about 20-30 miles. The shop told us we needed a new Pcv valve. About the same time the recall came out. BMW replaced the valve. We got 100 miles from Home and it started doing the same thing! Please advise. Thanks!
  17. BMW i3 I01 (2014 - 2020)

Absolutely ridiculous that BMW does not...
