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.
The steering angle sensor must be adjusted after certain repair work is performed, such as a wheel alignment or coding/programming of the dxc module. Due to a software error of the steering angle sensor, the dxc warning may be displayed after the adjustment is performed. E83 (X3).
