How could this be? Does it depend on a nearby dealership having item in stock?

I emailed SA at BMW Northwest. He said my "remedy UNavailable" text is due to out of stock. Said BMW will send letter when one becomes available. That made no sense as items in stock don't become available instantly everywhere.

I called BMW Seattle this morning and they are ordering the parts for me. It wouldn't surprise me if I get a call back saying the parts are UNavailable. lol.

I just had my driveshaft recall completed yesterday at BMW Seattle. Mine is a 2012 35d.
I got an X3 as a loaner car and the steering was super light (electric) and it was crap.....really horrible.
