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.
SERVICE ACTION: WATER INGRESS BENEATH LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT. Possible water leakage into luggage compartment through PVC weld on floor. Accumulation of water in luggage compartment may not be noticed due to drain location in the vicinity.
