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.

BLUETOOTH AND USB AUDIO PLAYBACK FUNCTIONS MISSING - IPHONE: Playlists, song titles, etc. from iPhone do not display on Head Unit Basic 2.
