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.
THUMPING NOISE FROM FRONT AXLE WHILE STEERING: A "thumping" noise is heard from the front axle area during slow speed steering.
