Yes, if you’re rocking a petrol D4 - not many do in Europe.
You would have thought that the 2014 upgrades that added a bit more power etc. they might had addressed this issue too. So looks like I need to find a decent warranty. Will be 4 years old in March and currently just under 60,000 miles.Dorian Woolger

As long as we don’t get all stressed or snap over it, just getting cranky is enough.

One of the problem when talking about cranks is that it's very easy to keep going around in circles...2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2

warranty direct, you can get core cover just for engine and transmission. Don't wait if coming up for a 10k mile turn, the price is set at what it is now, at 10k intervals. I bought with 3 months left, starting when my existing one ran outJoined the BMWX5 45e group

I know I said too many. I still stand by that, but my official guesstimate is 2.5 per week. 130 over the last year My D3 Build Thread
