Hey everyone, took in my bmw f30 yesterday for the turbo oil line recall, i picked it up today and as im driving it i hear a squeeking/creaking noise at all speeds, im really upset, car was perfect before i brought it in for recall, now its messed up ??...seems like the noise is coming from the brake pedal area or under the gear shifter area, what do you guys think it could be??

Could be anything as they have to lift the engine out of the cradle to do this recall. I know because I just had mine done and they left a bolt from the engine hoist in my engine bay that I found.

Take it back and have them look at it.

Yeah true, Im very particular about my car, it sucks when they do these recalls because you take it in for a recall and than they end up breaking something else...

So they have to take the engine out to do this recall? To replace turbo oil line? If so they deff forgot something loose

They don't remove it, but they disconnect it from the mounts and lift it up from the engine cradle to change the line.

What model does the recall apply to. Nothing noted under recalls for my 335.

I think the recall was for the f30 with the N20 engine, i got a letter at home telling me i had to bring it in

I just drove my car and they creaking ticking noise only happens when i switch gears from drive to reverse and only happens at very low speeds 5mph, im thinking since they have to lift the engine up, maybe one of the engine mounts by the trasmission got damaged or they forgot to properly install it
