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 DISPLAYS MIXED UNITS. When the displayed unit of measurement is changed from miles to Kilometers everything except the cruise control or limit set speed is displayed in Kilometers; the set speed is still shown in miles in the Instrument Cluster (Kombi) display. KOMBI software.
