LOL. You are evil!
I bet it's an engine contaminent issue and BMW want to drain everything out now to make sure it doesn't do any long term damage.

Sadly, I did not. I'll try and find the paperwork and see if it says anything.

This was a stop delivery/recall that has since been cancelled by BMW AG. I guess whatever they investigated/determined was deemed not to be serious or a detriment to performance and long term reliability of the engine.

I wager wrong oil was placed in some motors and they were swapping out to proper spec but I am only speculating.

Not quite. My original post was incorrect. There was a risk of oil being contaminated (no engine failure was found on any vehicles that was potentially affected.) The recall/stop delivery was cancelled because all VINs that were affected or flagged had the oil change performed.

Contaminated with what? Factory used a bad batch of oil? I am confused.
