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: S58T ENGINE - CHECK ENGINE OIL DEFLECTOR SCREWS: The engine oil deflector screws may have been tightened to the wrong torque.
