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.

A failed or insufficient grounding system can lead to wiring and component failures, reduced efficiency, anddowntime. To help avoid these risks, it is essential to ensure system integrity by following repair instructionsand properly torquing all connection points.
