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.
BUZZING OR CLICKING NOISE FROM THE SCR TRANSFER PUMP. There is a buzzing or clicking noise coming from under the car that can be heard from the passenger compartment when the engine is at idle.
