It may not be as bad as it typically is with new stuff, as the diesel is not new to BMW or the plant at all, simply the blutec system and emissions modifications.

unfortunately the emmissions modifications could in fact turn out to be a total nightmare. (see Ford F450 shooting flames from tailpipe)
the larger diesels are using a regeneration mode to burn off build-up. Ford and Chevy are having issues with their respective models.
hopefully this will not be a BMW issue. my understanding of the Blutec system is that it is not entirely the same technology as Ford and Chevy.
emmissions controls have really screwed the American made diesel.
