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.
Engine electrical systems. Poor throttle response; lack of power when accelerating; engine may crank too long before starting; loss of power at idle or when slowing to a stop. E83 (X3) models.
