I had similar woes as you did (added cost to mechanics), and while that sucked, I'm definitely glad to have my problem acknowledged and ultimately resolved too.

Is that issue with the Ohlins R&T unique to the F87 spec unit? |
Seems so, but it has Ohlins puzzled last I spoke with them to be honest. We knew the root cause to be due to the internal bushing changing parts from some brass(?) construction to PTFE. All they did in all of the examples in the below thread (including me) was revert back to their old style bushing and the issue was gone.

However, the guy on the phone (who honestly isn't just some typical front line support or sales folk) said they haven't gotten any complaints from M3/M4 owners; only M2 owners. So I'm not really sure what to make of that. I'm pretty sure the Ohlins R&T part number is the same for both chassis, but I might be wrong.
