I haven't seen any mention of this but I just had my 2018 750 in for recall repairs. The main issue was rubber oil lines leaking into the engine.

Interesting, thanks for mentioning this. Over here in the UK we have a database that we can check to see what recalls are on the records (and you can check your own vehicle to see if any outstanding recalls need action).

From the UK database (a government database) for the years of the G series 7 (AFAIK) I have highlighted one that may be similar to the the one you had in the US? I don't have any outstanding recalls on mine but always good to know and sometimes the database is not quite up to date for new recalls. There is a current new recall not yet on that database I believe but it only affects the 725d model here in the UK from the G series, (it does affect some F series 7's though, and I posted about that in the F series forum):

My 2016 750i has parts on order for the same recall. How long did it take the dealer to complete? Mine said to expect 2 days or so.

Think you meant to quote Gamoto, hopefully they can give you some info on the time to do the work for that recall in the USA.

Mine was done this week. They do a series of checks and replace parts as warranted. Mine needed the rubber turbo oil feed lines replaced with stainless steel lines but no other issues were found. I brought my car in Wednesday and got it back Friday; however, it needed some cosmetic work too and my SA told me all the mechanical work had been completed Thursday.
