Service bulletin MC510125
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.

Listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned: the document says which.
| MC460224 | 2025-07-31. Service bulletin. Calibration of one or both ride height sensors fail due to the ride height sensor/s are not positioned correctly. |

| MC610625 | 2025-04-18. Service bulletin. The comfort flashing function is deactivated in the instrument cluster settings, the function reactivatesautomatically after a few seconds. This means that comfort flashing cannot be deactivated. Due to a software error in I-level X001-25-03-505. |
| MCAS2525 | 2025-03-24. Other. Control Module Return |
| MC620425 | 2025-03-21. Service bulletin. The motorcycle can no longer connect with the BMW Motorrad Connected app due to pairing issue. |
| MC130121 | 2024-07-26. Service bulletin. Mainly sporadic, isolated but also permanent faults occur in the throttle grip sensor, throttle valve,crankshaft signal, camshaft signal, transmission signal, fuel pressure sensor, gear-lever sensor (GearShift Assistant), oxygen sensor and switching cam. These can result in functional impairments andmalfunctions, fault messages and fault memory entries. Besides isolated defective components, the sporadic faults are often mainly caused by contactproblems and increased contact resistances. These can generally occur along the entire signal pathof the respective affected component, but especially at plug connections. In this context, the plugconnection to the engine control unit has emerged as the main focus of the fault. Analyses of defective parts showed that in many cases the passivation (a production coating) of thepins at the plug-in contact (plug connection) of the engine control unit can result in correspondingfaults. A service solution for cleaning the pins has been created which can considerably improvecontact if implemented correctly. In most cases, this means that exchanging expensive componentslike the DME or the wiring harness can be avoided. |
| B611305 | 2024-02-01. Service bulletin. The electrical system of BMW vehicles has been subject to an ongoing development process over the last few years.
