What it covers
A service bulletin tells BMW technicians how to diagnose or fix a known issue. It is not a recall: a repair under a bulletin is normally paid by the owner unless the car is still under warranty or a warranty extension applies.
Service Action: Retrofit Bracket for EGR Cooler. The flexible pipe on the high-pressure Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) cooler may leak. CAUSE Excessive vibration and/or tension at the flexible elbow of the EGR cooler can cause it to leak.
