On a better note my diff arrived this week and I got my break in service today. Service guy asked if I wanted to replace the diff now or wait a few weeks. I said I'll wait... Target was having a sale on smart water for 2.50 a case. Did you know our trunks hold 24 500ml six packs?

More if you would have stacked them. Really should have maximized the saving

Has anyone received any recall notices in the mail for their F8x? I brought my car in yesterday for a stalling problem and also a clunk in the DCT. My service advisor told me that there was a recall on the rear diff and I should've received a notice in the mail (which I did not). Just wondering if anyone has heard the same.

I have a 2016 F82 with ~2500 miles.

PS-This 430 loaner is killing me. I miss my M

Just brought my car in for 1200 mile break-in and was told the same. Part on order but still driving around until it comes in. They say it's not the whole diff they're replacing, just a part... I have a 2016 m3.

There was a delivery stop on certain cars made from May through July.

I didn't get a notice in the mail but my CA called me and got my car in for the rear differential recall. I'm picking her back today.. sucks that I'll have to do another 1200 mile break in for it..

It's a "campaign", not a recall. There aren't/won't be recall letters. It will get flagged as outstanding when brought in for service until it's addressed.

Finally picked up my beast from the port on Friday after 7 months of waiting w/ 7 miles on the odometer. Now, it's Monday and I'm w/ 600 miles! I thought there would at least be some type of incentive apology for being delayed twice on behalf of BMW, but I was more excited with finally picking her up! Will be scheduling Xpel, window tint and break in service within the week.

I've heard that there was a better xpel alternative on the market now, anyone else?

Call BMW NA and tell them what happened. I was in touch with someone there after my car was delayed and they took care of me quite nicely.
