Has it been confirmed that the list is worldwide or just for US cars?

It seems strange that a bunch of people are saying that there dealer is telling them that there cars have a delivery stop but there VIN is not on the list. This is the thread. http://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...php?p=20280811 |

It's also possible there may be more than 202 and they're just now finding out. |

I can only assume that this isn't an exhaustive list and only tells half the story. Edit: I'm assuming that this list is for vehicles that have slipped the net from the factory,otherwise BMW are holding onto them to fix at source. Last edited by Nine Lives; 07-21-2016 at 02:21 AM.. |

dasblack sorry to hear that, man. Also, I guess it makes sense that they would only list cars that made it out of the factory. Otherwise, it would not TECHNICALLY be a recall, since it never left? Don't know, but that speculation makes sense. Or, at the very least, they don't need anyone to be on the lookout (or have the dealers do anything) since they have them. Anyone have a vehicle that didn't leave the factory that IS on the list?

A new stop-delivery order in Canada was issued last night, different from this one but for the same diff recall reason. Funny because my car was cleared earlier this week and today I was told I can no longer go pick it up tomorrow. |

Emailed my SA to inquire and received this response back:
"I saw that recall posted online as well. I have a client that has a M3 that's in transit who asked about it yesterday. Unfortunately we won't know if it's effected or not until the car arrives. The system we use to check on recalls doesn't display that info until the car has been delivered." That seems odd to me but suppose it could be accurate? I'm in the US. Any light anyone could shed would be most helpful. |

[QUOTE=gmzanatta;20289010]Here is the list for those wondering.
My M2 was built July 16th and its VIN falls after all the M2 VIN's listed below by 18 cars. I think it may be safe to assume that, if your car was built June 16th or later, you're probably not affected thanks for the list, just checked and I'm not on there |

It's a screeching metallic sound of some metal part rubbing against another metallic part for more than an instant. A kind of metallic rambling (or some rambling inside a metallic box) for a few moments (a second or so) rather than just some brief clunk. Happens at random, sometimes twice right after each other. Mostly when the car is not under load (for example cruising at slow speed or after coming out of a turn). It sounds as if some part moves in a controlled way from one side to another (opening or closing of a part) but with an awful rambling noise. Always exactly the same sound. I even got used to it ("Oh, here it goes again"). As far as I experienced, no impact on the driving itself. Very weird. Never heard that on any ///M car I ever drove. And no, it ain't the opening/closing of the butterfly valve of the M Performance Exhaust (totally different sound) nor the notorious 'cow bell sound' phenomenon caused by pebbles that got inside the brake system. I suspect the diff performing weird stuff. I told my dealer. He reported it to BMW. He saw in the system a notice about (normal) screechy sounds at slow speed during break-in: bedding in of the brakes during the first 500km. Definitely something else. My car is an early April 2016 build.

Artemis I heard the same thing when pulling out of my driveway once. Definitely did not sound like any sort of normal noise.
Early May build |
