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.

ERRONEOUS HEAD-UP DISPLAY FAULT IN INSTRUMENT CLUSTER: B7F6E3 - HUD: Fault in the communication (HUD not answering) in instrument cluster fault.
