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.
VEHICLE WILL NOT RESTART EME FC 2223A7/2223A8: Message "Engine restart not possible. Have this checked by nearest BMW Service Workshop."
