I spoke to BMW NA literally two days ago and the rep said that it's only an extended warranty for another 10/120. I'm glad they made it official.

Bimmerfest, breaking news on major BMW recalls. Bimmerpost pretty much all but gave up on the E70 forums. It's been at least 3 days already since the news, and no frontpage.


And it's not like this one effects a few owners like the M4 one that has literally affected like 42 cars...

FINALLY....great info! I was going to pay $1000 to get this fixed as I was worried about the transmission and x-fer case being taken out, extended warranty or not.
