S63 Crank Case Vent Lines Recall

Crazy1323 · 04-26-2016, 08:22 PM

I took my X5M in for service today and was told that there is an open recall for the crank case vent lines. I believe that this TSB has already been issued for the N63. It is good to know that this has now been extended to the S63 as well.

Do you have any more detail? I think a lot of us have paid out of pocket for this service and would like to recoup expenses if possible. Do you know the tsb number?

Damn it, I just bought new lines this week!!! This is just like the injectors, mine fail right before the recall. TSB or I expect you to reimburse me instead lol.

Well, WTF...I wrote a buddy and mine's somehow not applicable even though I've replaced the two in the right picture due to complete failure and the three in the left picture are cracked or brittle. Either way, this is only for the middle line in the left hand picture.

I have my 13 X5M over at the BMW Dealership currently to get some warranty work done and this is a new TSB post

Yep, in the same boat as well... Just fixed a whole slew of vacuum leaks including the CCV lines about 3 weeks ago.

Hmm appears as if it's only for very late model 2011 and newer trucks. My 2010 is left out... And I too have dealt with this issue already.
