BMW service bulletin · NHTSA ID 10147007 · Aug 2016 · also written SI B27 01 16, B270116
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: REPLACE THE DUST BOOT ON THE TRANSFER CASE. The dust boot (gaiter) for the front drive shaft at the transfer case may allow debris to enter the joint for the front driveshaft at the transfer case. The material of the dust boot may tear.
