B3401242026-08-27. Service campaign. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. After replacement of the Integrated Braking system (IB)/Power Brake the total distance covered might belower than when handed over to the workshop for the repair.
B5107262026-07-31. Service campaign. STRUCTURE:BODY. In the affected vehicles, an incorrect screwlocking device (circled) may have been usedfor the mounting bolts of the door latch locks.
B1206262026-07-03. Service campaign. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. In these vehicles with an S68 engine, an incorrect diagnosis of the Valvetronic (VVT) may occur. Undercertain operating conditions, the software may detect a short-circuit in the valve control system even thoughthere is no fault. When the above-mentioned fault occurs, the red Check Control warning light ‘Drive system fault’ illuminates.This can result in the intake valves closing gradually, which may lead to misfires while the engine is running.
B1206262026-06-01. Service campaign. ENGINE. DELIVERY STOP: VARIABLE VALVE TIMING
B1104252026-01-23. Service campaign. ENGINE. Due to an assembly error the upper oil pan screws may not have been torqued correctly.
B6129242025-11-03. Service campaign. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. RSU availability. Due to a software error in the BCP, the Calibration Identification Number (CAL ID) and the CalibrationVerification Number (CVN) of the vehicle are not stored correctly. They are generated with each programming session and are used to identify official BMW software.
B6128242025-11-03. Service campaign. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. RSU availability. Due to a software error in the BCP, the Calibration Identification Number (CAL ID) and the CalibrationVerification Number (CVN) of the vehicle are not stored correctly. They are generated with eachprogramming session and are used to identify official BMW software.
B3303252025-09-15. Service campaign. POWER TRAIN. The rear right driven half-shaft (aka output shaft/driven shaft) may not have been manufactured correctly during production and may break. In the event of a failure, there could be significant noises in the area of the rear axle and the driving performance will be noticeably reduced.
B1106252025-08-13. Service campaign. ENGINE. Due to an assembly error, the oil pump screws may not have been torqued correctly.
B1207252025-06-17. Service campaign. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. A quality check revealed that the DME in these vehicles has a programming error. This results in a deviation of the fuel-air mixture in the internal combustion engine.
B1205252025-05-31. Service campaign. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; ENGINE. Moisture may enter the start generator supply line and cause corrosion inside the line.
B2402242025-04-29. Service campaign. POWER TRAIN. Due to a manufacturing issue, the torque on the bolts of the transmission Mechatronics was not carried outaccording to the specification. The faulty torquing can cause a malfunction within the transmission, and as a result, the emergencyoperation of the transmission.
B6102252025-04-28. Service campaign. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. Due to unfavorable tolerances, the Power Control Unit (PCU) may switch off under heavy loads and nolonger charge the Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) Auxiliary (AUX) battery. This leads to the failure of the roll stabilization,and loss of communication to the EARS modules (S 0421 & S 0422).
B1204252025-04-28. Service campaign. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. As a result of a data input error, certain fault memories are permanently stored. The permanent storage offault memories does not comply with the legal specifications of the authority (California Air Resources Board– CARB). The fault has no effect on the use of the vehicle by the customer.
B6102252025-04-03. Service campaign. SUSPENSION. Due to unfavorable tolerances, the Power Control Unit (PCU) may switch off under heavy loads and nolonger charge the Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) Auxiliary (AUX) battery. This leads to the failure of the roll stabilization,and loss of communication to the EARS modules (S 0421 & S 0422).
B6202252025-03-03. Service campaign. UNKNOWN OR OTHER. For certain model vehicles with the S68T engine, the Condition Based Service (CBS) data may show sparkplug replacement is due at a considerably “earlier” interval than specified in the Service and WarrantyInformational Booklet.
B3401242025-02-03. Service campaign. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. After replacement of the Integrated Braking system (IB)/Power Brake the total distance covered might be lower than when handed over to the workshop for the repair.
B1206242025-02-03. Service campaign. ENGINE. BMW AG has decided on a service campaign for certain vehicles from the G0x, G12 and G20 series. Please have the starter motor checked and, if necessary, replaced in the vehicles concerned (according to the vehicle identification number selection) if possible before vehicle delivery. If vehicles have already been delivered, please have the measure carried out the next time the vehicles enter the workshop. A bolting fault on the long bolt screws can cause the magnets in the starter motor to twist. As a result, the power of the starter motor decreases. As a result, the engine does not start.
B1110242025-01-25. Service campaign. ENGINE. The engine oil pump mounting screws may not have been tightened with the correct torque.
B1109242025-01-25. Service campaign. POWER TRAIN. During manufacturing, the dual-mass flywheel has not been sufficiently greased. The insufficient grease may result in acoustic abnormalities and vibrations in the vehicle's powertrain.
B3401242025-01-23. Service campaign. SERVICE BRAKES. After replacement of the Integrated Braking system (IB)/Power Brake the total distance covered might be lower than when handed over to the workshop for the repair.
