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.
CREAKING OR RATTLING NOISE FROM SUNROOF AREA: Creaking and/or rattling noise from the sunroof area especially when driving on uneven road surfaces. This can already take place as of low speeds.
