I guess as long as they fix the problem, it should be fine. Its hard to say if there's any link between traffic mode and the camshaft issue (although I doubt it); but it doesn't really matter bceause BMW is responsible either way and it sounds like they're taking care of it.

Judging from the other posts, it sounds like they may have had a bad run of camshafts. I'd actually be more hopeful about this issue getting resolved because:
1) its not electrical (electrical issues tend to take longer for BMW to come up with fixes for)
2) it wasn't happening to e90s prior to now (so it sounds like its probably just due to a production line worker or out of spec machine)-- so there's a good chance the new camshaft won't have these issues.

Anyway, sorry to hear about your problem-- good luck!
