Hi lads, can you do me a favor and check your Gen4's and see if it's leaking any amount of oil on the left hand side of the engine casing? Mine is not dripping oil, but it's wet even after a clean up with brake cleaner. I will attach a photo in a reply to this post.

It's right above the '678' printed on the coolant hose. The slight green/yellow color. It's Motul 300V.
Left Hand side of the bike. Just below the front sprocket.yea i can se the oil,i meant position on the bike (not having gen4)
Sounds like chain oil fling to me?
Fresh from the German forum the pictures from the replacement oil cooler.
Apparently the oil cooler itself is not different the date on the one (new) was early 2019.
What is different are the hoses and the attachments to these.

This is worrying, I don't remember this many issues with my Gen 2 or current Gen 3
Nearly every new model of any bike/car has some unforeseen issues that QA did not find, it is to be expected as they are complicated machines. Gen 2 was released 3 years after initial production of the model, Gen 3 was released after 6 years. Problems were few and far between as the teething issues had been resolved years before.
It is how the dealer responds and resolves the issues that is important. I have to say BMW have been very slow at getting parts out for this oil cooler issue, not great CS.
