So what are the symptoms if this happens? My 2011 328i wagon has started a slight hesitation when I go to WOT when under ~2000 rpms and in a high gear, like 3rd at 15mph. Yesterday I was doing about 35mph in 5th and went to ~80% throttle and it had a really bad hesitation (lurching) and then suddenly my CEL came on and when I brought the car to a stop it was shaking like it was only running on 4 or 5 cylinders. My car was manufactured in 5/2010, so it could be affected, but the car is at 59k miles so out of warranty. I am planning to take it to an independent repair shop (Group 2) unless I have reason to believe it is related to the recall issue. I assume all recalls are repaired at no charge even if the car is out of warranty? Thanks!
