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.

Perform the procedure outlined in this service information on all affected vehicles before customer delivery or the next time they are in the shop for maintenance or repairs. Subject service action: Program control units (DSC).
