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.
A service engine soon light comes on. The engine will only operate to 1500 rpms and lacks power. There is a software application error.
