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.

TOUCH COMMAND DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY RECONNECT AFTER VEHICLE SLEEP CYCLE. The Touch Command tablet (at the rear seat center console) does not automatically reconnect to the vehicle after a sleep cycle.
