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 noise can be heard from underneath the seat while the seat is being moved either forwards or backwards. This can occur to the driver"¢ÂÂs and/or the passenger"¢ÂÂs front seat.
