Anybody else received a letter about a Starter Motor Recall ?

BMW "strongly advising parking the vehicle outside and not in the vicinity of buildings"

Danger of the car catching fire even when parked up with the ignition off

Best bit - they dont have parts available and will be in touch in due course !

Nope, what models and years are affected?

It looks like it is for cars with the B48 engine as a few G29 Z4 owners have had it for their 20i and 30i models built between 2019 and 2022.

So it probably affects the 230i, 330i, 430i, 530i, X3, X4 and Toyota Supra too.

Easiest way to be sure is to check on the DVLA website.

FB groups were all getting recalls for 520d's so i suspect its going to be lots of models.
