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.
A-PILLAR WIND NOISE. At vehicle speeds above 60 mph, wind noise is heard from the vicinity of the A-pillar. Excessive gap between the roof trim strip and the A-pillar.
