Recall!
Had to go to Sytner's last week. They asked for my keys. 'Read' them and announced: 'You've got an undone recall'.
They did it (for free, of course), gave the car a 'health check', washed & hoovered it and I was pleased.

There may well be other ways of doing this, perhaps with your VIN online, but, if you go to your local authorised BMW dealer, they should have a record of whether your car has had all the work done on it required by (any) recalls.
Sytner accessed my records, beginning by using the information in the key, and my car needed a 'recall job' that took 2 hours.

Did they not give you a description of the work carried out or is it a secret?
My car went into Sytners last September and I wasn't made aware of any recalls so I am wondering whether this is a recent issue? What year is your 35is please?

You can search by year/make/model here and then check against your VIN.

There's an app called Digital Garage that gives you a lot of info about your car and will flag up alerts as well. I have also been on the site Mister T suggested and will give you the recall problem and what VIN numbers it affects. Very good for giving you peace of mind.
