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. RE-WORK SEAL OF FUEL FILLER HOUSING. The fuel filler pipe seal is possibly not mounted and/or only poorly mounted over the wheel arch flange. If incorrectly installed, water may leak into the luggage compartment. Incorrect installation during production.
