Service bulletin B070310

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

"?SI B07 03 10 Workshop Environment Systems March 2015 Technical Service This Service Information bulletin supersedes SI B07 03 10 dated September 2011. designates changes to this revision SUBJECT Non-electric Diagnosis. Since 2007, the BMW Group has integrated NED (Non-electric Diagnosis) into diagnosis for the purpose of finding the cause of mechanical, acoustic and visual problems. The advantages of using NED test modules are as follows: ? Most common known mechanical, acoustic and visual issues can be diagnosed by the technician, saving diagnosis time. ? Video and sound files provide a reference when troubleshooting certain issues. ? By providing guided troubleshooting for these types of problems, it ensures that the customer's vehicle will get fixed the first time. ? Some of the test plans do not require vehicle communication (frees up an ICOM). All test modules can be executed via ISTA (Integrated Service Technical Application). Many NED test modules can now be performed with no car communication (NCC displayed in the test module list). With each subsequent ISTA version, additional NED test modules will be added. For a listing of all the applicable NED test modules, refer to ISTA News ""New Content, Non Electric Diagnosis,"" which can be accessed from the ISTA start page. This document will be updated with each ISTA release."
