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: REPLACE CONVERTIBLE TOP COMPARTMENT LID TRIM. Temporary convertible top compartment cover trim was installed in production due to parts shortage. Vehicle cannot be delivered while equipped with temporary cover. Temporary trim does not provide adequate seal.
