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.
G12 PHEV - FUEL LINE RATTLE NOISE. Customer reports rattling or humming noise coming from the rear area of the vehicle at engine speed range between 1,200-1,500 rpm. Interference between the fuel line quick connector and the side wall of a fuel tank.
