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.

Customer may discover that after a sleep cycle, any paired Bluetooth devices may have been deleted from the head unit and any personalized menu settings may have been set back to factory.
