I've had that procedure done now 2 lights ago.

My guy is at Ganley (bought my car through dbtheo) Car has been to both Ganley and Davis Cleveland BMW same outcome. Either the procedure was done incorrectly (not super likely, but hey it's an art not a science grinding stuff free hand), or this just hasn't been solved yet from BMW.

Eddie135 i'm curious to know who told you about the slamming, is BMW in Australia putting out a different Service Bulletin?
