Chassis-code warning

Older BMW PressClub metadata occasionally contains inconsistent/stale generation tags. Canonical working codes:

• 2010 China LWB family: F18;
• 2017 China LWB family: G38;
• 2024 China LWB family: G68.

Every chassis code remains tied to an official BMW PressClub tag/source in the chassis audit.
