SIB 34 01 22: Throttle service information

Throttle service information on B46/B48/B58 engines (2019–2021); BMW explains the cause and the approved repair.

BMW service bulletin · NHTSA ID 10214260 · Feb 2022 · also written SI B34 01 22, B340122

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.

When driving off from a standstill, a delayed or sluggish throttle response may be noticed sporadically.
