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.
WIND NOISE FROM REAR SIDE WINDOW. At highway speed, wind noise is heard from either rear side window. CAUSE Gap between the window guide and the window guide bar. Replace the window guide after verification of cause.
