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.

Adaptive Headlight Failure. CCM (Check Control message) displayed for side lights/daytime running lights faulty or adaptive headlight failure.
