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.
Outside Door Mirror Triangle Seal Protrudes and Creates Wind Noise. The customer may complain of wind noise and/or poor fitment of the door mirror seal. CAUSE The outside mirror seal locking tab shows poor fitment.
