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.

Instrument Cluster: CBS ""Running-in Check"" is Displayed. The parameters of the CBS scopes for oil service, brake fluid, etc, can also be implausible or invalid. CAUSE Error in the CBS mapping data in the FEM (Front Electronics Module) and corrupt data in the instrument cluster during programming."
