    Any BMW technicians on the forum?

    I just need to find out if my BMW qualifies for this re-call:

    Thanks.

    It's an Alpina D5 (f10) 3ltr MY2012

    My BMW local dealers aren't the most honest people in the business so just trying to get my facts right before i approach them

    Difficult one - we have an X4 3.0d - in the process of asking the dealer next week.

    I think if you mail BMW UK with your VIN they will tell you.

    My 125d had this work done about 6 months ago, they were rather cagey about what needed doing and why. I can't remember if they called me in specially or did it as part of a routine service
