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.

CONNECTEDDRIVE: BMW APPS AND SERVICES NOT AVAILABLE. The BMW ConnectedDrive Services are no longer available in the vehicle nor are the BMW Apps displayed in the vehicle. Also "Update Apps and Services" via the iDrive is not selectable (greyed out).
