Please note that the 5-series and X5 vehicles are only included if they are equipped with the optional sports steering wheel. The affected vehicles are equipped with a dual-stage driver frontal air bag that may be susceptible to moisture intrusion which, over time, could cause the inflator to rupture.

Owners are advised not to drive their vehicles until the vehicle has been remedied. BMW will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front driver air bag module, free of charge. The recall began Aug 2016. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417. Note: This recall supersedes recall 14V-348 in its entirety. Additionally, vehicles that have had their driver side frontal air bag replaced previously as part of a recall remedy need to have their air bag replaced under this recall as well. Note: On December 17, 2015 BMW removed the model year 2004 X5 3.0i and 4.4i Sports Activity vehicle from this recall. Those vehicles were mistakenly identified as including the air bags that are subject to this recall.

A dealer confirms by VIN whether the campaign applies to this car (version, trim) and whether it was completed.

Summary

BMW M3 2004 VIN check

This page is a short report on the BMW M3 2004: VIN WBSBL91090JP89495, production year 2004, mileage 122k km, petrol engine, manual gearbox and an asking price of $99,900. Such a check helps to quickly understand how well a specific car matches the market, whether the price looks suspiciously low and whether the mileage is typical for this year.

Insight: The car is over 15 years old — running costs are higher; the key inspection points are the body and anti-corrosion treatment. Low mileage for its age — the odometer reading is worth cross-checking with the history.

Market position

Based on current data, all years). Market prices range from $43,800 to $114,010 with a median of $85,500, and this offer is within the market: 17% over the median.

Insight: The price is in line with the market — a balanced offer. Wide price spread — the final value depends heavily on trim, condition and mileage.

History & registrations

The report includes state registry data: owners — 3, transfers — 2, plate changes — 1, years in the registry — 2. The latest recorded operation: Sold to a new owner on 09.08.2023. This data helps to assess the legal transparency of the car before buying.

Insight: A moderate number of owners (3) — typical for the car’s age. The plate was changed 1 time — such changes can split the history into separate episodes. The car appeared in Ukraine recently — the history is short, its origin matters.
