Its not all the 5,6, or 7 series that are affected only the v8 and v12 powered engine. But i still am unsure as to the specific models that would be recalled.
AutosRe: BMW Global Recall - Are You Affected? by snowdrops(m): 7:26pm On Oct 02, 2010
I wonder what they mean by the v8 and v12 powered engine. They should be more specific for those not that automobile savvy

I have the 2006 520 diesel

Ehoi:
There can never be peace without justice. I can understand why many people are angry about this situation but i reckon until we go beyond the issue of emotions and start tackling the root causes and demands, we will be going from frying pan to fire. Just as some people have dug in and want Nigeria to remain and thrive, so it seems MEND have dug in. There is going to be trouble ahead for everyone if the core issues are ignored. The problem with the case of MEND is that they sit untop of the oil that keeps the country going. If they start another round of blowing up oil sites, the whole country will feel the pinch. WE NEED SOLUTIONS FOR PEACE TO REIGN.
So the core issue should be addressed by blowing up innocent people, their only fault being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Mend introduced commercial kidnapping to Nigeria, where has that got us to?
Now its car bombs. What is in a year or two years time, criminals all around the country start blowing any and everybody off.

Then the entity called Nigeria would cease to exist and maybe next time it may well be your family who end up being blown up by one of mends bomb, and i wish you come on here and tell us to stop being emotional

If mend thinks violence will get them anywhere, they should speak with hamas, plo, and the other militant groups in palestine. they have been fighting and blowing things up since 1967, yet isreal keeps expanding into their territory.

that bomb blast is really wicked and selfish.

Some people have been made motherless, fatherless, orphans, etc.

Innocent people have been killed, and for what, so some hoodlums could prove a point.

Why did they not rather blow themselves up in the Sahara desert?

Violence never yield any meaningful outcome.

PoliticsKidnapped School Children Released by snowdrops(op): 9:57am On Oct 01, 2010
LAGOS, Nigeria — Kidnappers released 15 school children Friday that they abducted from a bus on their way to school near Nigeria's oil-rich and restive southern delta, a brazen attack highlighting the growing insecurity in the West African nation, a police spokesman said.

Federal police spokesman Emmanuel Ojukwu told The Associated Press that authorities recovered the children early Friday morning, four days after gunmen seized them from a bus traveling in Nigeria's Abia state. Ojukwu said the nursery and primary school students were in good condition and soon would be reunited with their parents.

Ojukwu said he did not have any details about what led to the children's release, nor did he know if a ransom had been paid. Typically, most kidnap victims are released in a week or two after their families pay whatever ransom they can scrape together.

Authorities said the gunmen stopped the school bus Monday morning as it headed toward the Abayi International School. The gunmen seized all the mobile telephones from the students, the bus driver and a teacher onboard before taking the children away, officials said. The kidnappers apparently demanded more than $130,000 to release the children, but later lowered the ransom amount.

Abia state, in Nigeria's southeast, sits near the Niger Delta, a maze of mangroves and creeks where foreign oil firms draw crude in Africa's most populous nation. The region has long been plagued by violence from militants upset about the region's unceasing poverty and from opportunistic criminal gangs targeting foreigners for kidnappings.

Now, with oil firms keeping their workers hidden behind razor wire and under paramilitary protection, gangs have increasingly targeted middle-class Nigerian families. Middle-class children, as well as priests, politicians and doctors have been abducted by criminal gangs.

While kidnappings routinely fill the front pages of Nigeria's newspapers, it took Monday's kidnapping to spark new condemnations and fear in the nation. President Goodluck Jonathan, who previously suggested sending the military into states overrun by kidnappings, personally promised to rescue the school children.

Last week, pirates operating off the Nigeria's coast kidnapped three French oil workers and a Thai national. The workers have yet to be released.

Indonesia also is as old as Nigeria.

It too was ruled by the military until 1998. It has a population of 200 million.

However life expectancy there is 70 and in Nigeria only 47 yrs.

Theres is nothing to celebrate. The entity called Nigeria is a sham. It needs to be split in half so the northerners can go their separate way.
