I have a 2012 550xi. I was told my SA that they used a different part for the 2013 model year....hmmm. Makes me wonder if there's something wrong with the 2012 version and they know it.
We got our 2012 550xi back on Friday, and they also replaced all 8 injectors (we had three that tested bad). The SA mentioned that these injectors were different than the ones that came with the car. I asked whether there was a design change, and he said it was likely just a different vendor.

So far, so good following the repair. Time will tell, I suppose.
