Before I bought the 440xi GC I actually looked at getting the 535 in 2014 but found power to be lacking so looked at the 2013 550 demo. Test drove the demo and feel something not right so I told the owner something is wrong with the car. He checked the car and asked me back to test drive it again and I told him still something isn't right with the engine. Six months later.......TSB. The car only had about 25000km on it. I noticed something was wrong when you flat out accelerate and also when cruising to a more reasonable speed after the acceleration.
Did some research and talked to Customer Service Manager who was a friend and he confirmed the problems of the N63 is not just a myth. Before the TSB it was a huge headache for him.
He now deals with them on a daily basis in claims to BMW.

Your experience in the 550 does not really speak to the CCP issues. Regardless you made a fine choice with a 4 series. Happy driving.
