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.
FC 20A503: Turbocharger Coolant Pump, Self-diagnosis. The customer complains that the Check Control Message ""Drive Check"" (ID49) is displayed in the CC. The corresponding fault code 20A503 (Turbocharger coolant pump: signal implausible) is stored in the DME.
