Had the CV Recall Service Today
Had this recall done today. Officially called "Recall Campaign No. 17V-067: Rear Driveshaft Constant Velocity Joint." Dropped the car off at my dealer at 8:30AM. The tech performed the inspection and the service writer called me at 9:30AM to let me know I would need the recall, and that they had the parts in stock. Happy me. He called only two hours later to let me know that the recall was done and I could pick up the car. Here's the interesting part. The work order indicates that the part replaced was BMW 26-11-7-610-061, which is the actual flexible disk, or guibo. I checked RealOEM.com and sure enough. The guibo is referenced as the constant velocity joint in the description.
I took my car for a brisk run up the interstate and experienced no vibrations or new sounds. I just hope whatever was failing has been fixed and remains intact for the duration of my ownership. Peace... Mack
