From my receipt:
LABOR
B61 14 12 BATTERY CABLE CONNECTION
AS PER SIB 61 14 12
REMOVED BATTERY CABLE CLEANED CONNECTION LUBED REINSTALLED
BATTERY CABLE CONNECTION AS PER SIB 61 14 12
PARTS
QTY. DESCRIPTION
1 @ 61-13-9-290-787 POS. BATT. COVER
1 @ 83-19-2-295-229
Hope that helps. I'm guessing that the second item is grease? It took them about 15 minutes and it's hard to tell that anything was done, other than they didn't go to the trouble of snapping the new battery terminal cover closed, Thanks guys!...might be worthing checking for everyone.

My Ride: 2006 530i with sport and premium package.
Got my letter last week from bmwna. Not taking my car in just because everytime I've been to a dealer they seem to magically find a new problem with my car I never had. I'm in the OC by the way.

My Ride: 2006 525XI, Jet black on Dakota beige. Premium and winter packages. I consider myself a purist and intend to keep my car absolutely stock and shiny.
2008 328I Convertible, Sapphire black on beige interior. Premium package, NAV, iPod adapter.
Retired: 2002 325I, Titanium silver on black leather. Premium package. Absolutely stock and proud of it.
....wishful thinking
I think they did mine, last week. I did not verify the "before," so I wouldn't be able to verify the "after" but I presume my car is now cleared of this recall.
I would love to see the bastards own up to the other real hazard, namely the melting wires and module that are located under the spare wheel (or where the spare wheel used to be, for cars with RFTs). I wonder what it's going to take to get BMW to relocate those wires, that present a real fire hazard, under a recall. I was quoted $200 for relocating those parts.
