Feel bad for you. Hopefully they extended you engine warranty when they rebuilt it! If not, maybe you can convince them using this recall. Perhaps this recall will provide the owners with an engine extended warranty, like they did for the S54 (160,000Kms/10 years) IIRC ...
My 135i has a May 2010 Production date, 57,000Kms on the odometer, and I havent had the issue yet. N55 does consume oil though.
Ive asked my service advisor if this could be hanlded as a preventive maintenance, before this recall was announced, and he obviously refused.
Ive mailed BMW Canada to file a complaint. They called back and claimed I was not affected (SIB article says differently).
I filed a complaint with Transport Canada about the security concerns I have related to this issue. I havent heard back from them.
With today's BMW USA announcement, Ive asked my Service Advisor (Canada) to reconsider. Ive emailed him the article, and left a vmail. I dont care if he/BMW Canada thinks Im a royal PITA ... ;-)
