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: Repair the fuel tank level sensor. Vehicles produced from 5/31/07 to 7/3/07.
