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.

Top Rear Side View Camera Control Unit Rattles While Driving. While driving, a rattling-type noise is heard coming from the lower windshield area up behind the instrument panel (driver's side). CAUSE The TRSVC (Top Rear Side View Camera) control module support bracket is loose.
