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.
Integrated Navigation Voice Not Loud Enough: Integrated Navigation voice guidance is not loud enough to be heard over loud music.
