The only gas fill up I got since delivery was with the emission recall. I had to bang on them about that one, but the bulletin called for it as a gesture from BMW NA for your trouble.

How are we supposed to know the bulletin calls for a free tank of gas? If we don't know about it, we can't fight for it. Your free gas probably went into the sales manager's car!

AHhhhhhh No wonder... So with the BMW emissions recall they fill up the tank... no wonder last time I took my other car in they ran it down to red for me and didnt even fill it up.

I didnt fill it up before cuz i was hoping for free gas too LOL, since I got it with the emissions recall...
