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.
Grinding Noise from Rear Brakes: Pebbles, road grit, or other foreign materials caught between the brake protection plate and the brake disc may cause a disturbing noise in the rear axle area.
