Nope. The car is an 07 with 29,800 miles. I was stunned that the TSB hadn't been done!
Is there a listing of TSBs? I want to see what else the previous owner missed. |

noob question, what is the TSB and does it apply to M line? I too have some oil underneath the car but can't source the origin.

Technical Service Bulletin.
That particular one doesn't apply to the ///M. I have all manner of oil leaks around the front of the block that I can't find. I have suspicions about the oil filter housing gasket, timing cover, Vanos, etc. Mine is probably all of the above.

I too have an '07 Z4 E85 3.01 and the dealer told me it has a small transmission pan gasket leak and they want $1,083.48 (almost $600 labor and almost $500 parts) to fix it saying the gasket is not replaceable and the whole pan must be replaced. How could the labor be that much? And no gasket available? I found "OEM" gaskets for E85 Z4 on Ebay selling for less then $100
But, Is this covered under the TSB mentioned above and why didn't the dealer tell me about it? I found the TSB Mechatronic Seal TSB 24 08 06 Sealing Sleeve Seepage mentioned above and it sounds like it is for a different problem then my pan leak?

Yes, I have an independent BMW mechanic, but the question I have is whether this would be covered by the dealer on my 2007 Z4, as this TSB was dated 2010 and that's 7 years ago. Also, I'm not the original owner, I bought it from the original owner.

The reason I'm asking is that I went to my BMW dealer and they said that it would not be covered because the car is out of warranty at 69k miles. I am the second owner and I bought it directly from the first owner. Any one want to chime in on this? Thanks, |

I bought my 07 3.0i from a Ford dealer (go figure) with 29,000 miles. When I got the car I bought an extended warranty. If the dealer can't fix the issue they have to send it to the BMW dealer on their dime.
They stated this was a TSB repair and was a $0 cost since it was a TSB. |
