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.

INCORRECT TIRE AND LOADING INFORMATION LABEL. Five (5) vehicles were produced with an incorrect Tire and Loading Information label. The label may not reflect the proper ""Cold Tire Pressure"" specifications for the vehicle.
