BMW Recall ref. Steering Wheel Airbag Renewal

[sp2c]

Is this common knowledge?
Who has had this work carried out?

[CSLManual]

Yeah I found this out by browsing on cutters, then called them up and booked it in. Didn't have a letter this time. Call your local dealer, tell them not to wash it, go drink some coffee and eat some lotus biscuits. Sorted.

Mine is booked to have this carried out a week Thursday, only heard through forums etc. No letter that I can remember. Must get my steering wheel retrimmed now.

What is the recall number?

[Yanto_csl]

I had this done 3-4 years back....is this a further issue or are people catching up still ?

[select]

3 years ago was probably passenger side airbag.
This time around its all about the Drivers side.

[shimmy]

So they couldnt have done both same time

[Monkey]

It was indeed the passengers side a couple of years back, it's now the drivers side.

They have just released another batch of chassis numbers, so if yours hasn't been done I would expect you to get a letter soon.

I rang to book my MOT for next Thursday and was informed they wanted to undertake the warranty airbag work then. :whistle:

. Asked about this driver airbag recall when I booked mot, doing airbag at same time, not had a letter though.��

I am not sure how it is handled in the UK, now that you are now longer part of the EU it might be different :whistle:, however the MOT guys might not know about this recall. Best to ask the BMW dealership directly.

I didn't get a letter for mine, but the recall has been carried out by Vines of Redhill.

All I did was ask the service guy if there was any recalls outstanding on the CSL when I was having my i8 serviced.

Had my airbag replaced yesterday.

I asked about the recall number to be told there would likely be a different number in Australia and they recommended that you contact BMW Oz with your chassis number to get the correct recall info... Sorry I could not be more help!

Mine is going in for both airbag recalls this week coming during Insp 2 service.
