My 2007 E86 Z4 3.0si was already included in the PCV recall. Looks like they moved it back a year to cover the 2006 model year.

I checked Z4M, it doesn't show up.

I don't think the ///M is fitted with a PCV igniter.

My 2006 3.0si does not show up either.

I'm getting mine done this coming Friday. Thanks for the heads-up on this, guys - I read the info that was posted here and was able to make my appointment before I received the recall letter in the snail-mail.
