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.
Coolant leaking from the engine compartment. Traces of coolant leaking from the expansion tank of the low temperature cooling system.
