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.

WHINING NOISE WHEN OPENING AND CLOSING THE TRUNK. When opening or closing the trunk; there may be a whining noise present from the area of the trunk lift support.
