Oil Consumption Fix

[clar]

Not sure if this has been brought up before. When I sent in my M5 for routine servicing a few days back, I was told by the SA that there is a bulletin or some sort to replace some parts to fix the high oil consumption issue that has plagued the F10 M5. I was told that I would need to leave the car there for a few days. I needed the car this couple of weeks, so did not do it yet. Anybody did this fix yet?

I think some dudes in the UK did it. Hmmm...

Haven't heard of the fix. I just fix with more oil its cheap enough not to worry about consumption.

I remember he mentioned that the coolant reservoir/radiator are also involved.

Not too concerned about the cost as it's free at the dealership anyway. I am just concerned it might be a sign of bigger problems.
