    R18 recall Nov 2024

    Received letter from BMW re: recall campaign No. 24V-716: reverse gear control unit. Advises "Remedy is unavailable". Intermediate fix is to have dealers disconnect the reverse drive unit.

    idle surge

    Mine goes well beyond 1100...latest test I did was applying the front brakes while it was rolling in 1st gear at its high @1200 rpm idle with no throttle input and the idle surged to @1600 rpm. It just took off again while rolling...actually spun the rear tire. That's what I'd call a problem...

    That's the issue exactly. Have been waiting to hear from my dealer's service tech who has Q&A'd BMW Motorrad on any advice & possible fix for this known problem. No response from Berlin...yet.
