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.
DISPLAY KEY: SERVICE INTERVAL DISPLAY CHANGES . INFORMATION Replacing Parts or programming the vehicle will not rectify the situation.
