Hey Mac,

I bet your X6 was held up due to the power steering gear recall. Based on the info I received last month, BMW was awaiting confirmation from the manufacturer of the power steering gear that a snap ring was defective. BMW knew about the issue in June, however it took them until July to send out a formal recall notice. Your X6 was likely held up until BMW received confirmation. Either the ring was replaced on your X6 or it was confirmed that the part in your car was okay, hence the delay in your vehicle getting shipped to dealer. Have you received a recall letter? I bet the answer is no!
