While looking up the recall for the takata recall, I noticed there was an open recall on my car for the vanos housing bolts, I had not received a notice in the mail even though I had updated my account with BMW at first notice of the tanaka recall. I had my car serviced for the vano housing repair which they removed the valve cover to inspect the bolts and found a broken bolt on the vanos housing and replaced the exhaust, removed and inspected the oil pan to remove the fragments. I paid for an oil change that day. Less than 7300 miles and 2 quarts of oil later I was experiencing an oil leak that was caused by an improperly seated valve cover not seating to the cylinder head. They offered to repair a broken cylinder head bolt for $500 I declined as my mechanic said it didn't make sense and they should repair a bolt if they are already in there. I'd also like to note that the recall listed the repair was to take 4 hours but they had my car 3 days. No loaner was given until the end of the 2nd day. They are now refusing to reimburse me for the valve cover $1000 repair. I noticed online that several dealers replaced the valve cover as a part of this service to avoid this problem, though bert smith BMW St. Petersburg, fl did not. I also have 2 other open recalls on my car that have been listed as a remedy not available since December 2017.
