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.
Convertible Top Makes Noise. A cracking-type noise is heard when driving over rough pavement with the convertible top in the closed position. Soft top latch securing screws.
