Anyone knowing more about this ? Could this be another reason why they have stoppet the delivery of M550i in europe ?
The M550i delivery issue in Europe is an emissions change that needs to be done to the V8 to meet more stringent requirements. I would be suspect of how widespread the engine issue is based on two instances and I doubt a dealer knew of or would share a total count of failures worldwide.
