it is indeed not very hard to do.
My M9 was back focusing out of the box and the rangefinder image was stopping before merging when lens was at infinity and looking at the moon and the hilversum TV mast at 4 km.
Also the camera was back focusing with all lenses at all distances so I figured it was only the infinity adustment of the wheel and did it myself using a 2mm allan wrench. Now all lenses including 90mm and summilux 50 focus perfectly.
Take a look at Julian's post here:

Only the wheel adjustment is simple, the rest is not something I would try myself.
I believe the nearest official service center is in Denmark so Solms would be just as fast.

Today it has been sent to Solms together with the 50 cron. There is no longer service available in either Sweden or Denmark, everything goes to Solms.
It is quite worrying that so many have had these problems, straight out of the box! But if it comes back soon enough and working perectly, then I suppose it is easily forgotten....
