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.
WATER INJECTION SYSTEM WATER LEVEL TOO LOW. Check Control (CC) Message Water level too low, engine performance only available to a limited degree is displayed.
