If you were here during the M2 Competition stop delivery, that thread was a s—t show with grossly inaccurate info. |

Genius might have directed you to the dealer as your SA would be able to see the same updates which you get from Genius team. |

You guys think bmw is still narrowing down on the affected car? Genius stating my car still has the stop sale. Hopefully I’m not the unlucky bunch.

My car (X3M Competition) was initially on the list, but I texted my dealer and he said it no longer shows any active campaigns against my VIN.
So BMW is effectively tracing and culling the affected vehicles. This is why we cannot freak out and react to incomplete and/or unverified information. Speculation spins way out of control. Here's wishing good luck to all, and that this latest information is valid. |

I doubt that. If they fudged parameters to get a soft pass then they will be dealing with main bearing failures down the road. I can’t see BMW punting like that when it comes to rabid owners of its enthusiast brand.

Hard to determine not knowing their data/criterion...still would be concerning to me if my car was initially flagged...I'd be asking for some more specific technical reassurance.

[QUOTE=Vic55;28181316]yeah they appear to be--- posted already but I know alot people are not going to sift thru 30 plus pages
I’ve been keeping up with every post. I was more on the lines of if bmw is nearing the end of their investigation or if this will be on going for a long time. Probably too early to know. I’m just worried because my car is still affected and if more time passes without my car being lifted from the recall that means a higher chance my car will be affected. |

I'm still affected. My CA told me there were many cars that had their stop sale lifted but unfortunately mine was not one of them...he'll check tomorrow morning again but I'm assuming at this point I'm going to be waiting for a long time...

I agree with your comment. An organization like BMW would include vehicles in a recall even if they have the slightest doubt. Long term, it would be beneficial and cost effective to include those vehicles in an official recall rather than going spending resources on government regulation, litigation and fixing vehicles.

Drop ship longblocks
Hello, haven't logged in for a decade or so. I moved away from BMW after they went turbo, but I'm back. Anyway, I know a lot of you are concerned about techs opening up the bottom end of this engine but I received this from an LA area dealer today when discussing the stop sale on an in stock G80:
"Only way to avoid any markup would be to order the vehicle, but you may end up waiting 4-6 months…I spoke with my tech and they said Bmw is just going to drop ship entire longblocks." SO, if this has been announced already I'm sorry. |
