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.

CHECK CONTROL MESSAGE "ROOF NOT LOCKED": A check control message is displayed stating "Roof not locked", although the roof is securely locked.
