There is a grating or scraping noise when the steering wheel is turned. The noise comes from the steering column switch cluster (SZL), coil spring or steering wheel. When the steering wheel is turned, the connection between the steering wheel and the steering column switch cluster causes torsional stress, which creates a noise in the coil spring cassette.

INFORMATION Laser headlights will be available as optional equipment SA5AZ. The laser headlight is a combined LED/laser headlight. Low- and high-beam headlights are generated by LEDs, as in LED headlight. The additional high beam (high beam booster) is generated by a laser. - Multiple high-performance light emitting diodes emit highly bundled laser beams (blue light) via special optics on to a deflection mirror. The deflection mirror directs the laser light to a phosphorous membrane. There, by use of yellow phosphorous, a strongly illuminating white light is generated (as with LEDs) from the blue laser light. - The light generated by the laser headlight is a very white light. - Laser beams are not emitted by the laser headlight. With an almost 1969 feet (600 m) range, the additional laser high beam illuminates almost twice as far as the high beam from an LED headlight. When the high-beam assistant function is activated, the laser high beam is added to the high beam of the LED headlights above a driving speed of approx. 43 MPH (70 km/h). When the driving speed falls below 43 MPH, all high beam headlights are switched off with a lag; and immediately off when the driving speed falls below 37 MPH (60 km/h). NOTE: When the vehicle is being operated while stationary (on a roller test stand), do not look into the light beam. It is not possible for the driver to manually switch the additional laser high beam on and off, as can be done with conventional high beams. This is true both when driving and when the vehicle is at a standstill. The laser warning label, for the class of laser in the headlights, is visible from the front of the https://www.bmwtis.net/tiscode/cgi-bin/bulletin.aspx?sie_path=/tsb/bulletins/htm_store/316...

Under certain vehicle operating conditions, the brake calipers' outer pads (without wear sensor) will wear faster than the inner pads (with wear sensor). This is a normal brake pad wear characteristic that is inherent to the design of this vehicle.

INFORMATION Inform the customer that the introduction of these expanded frequencies by the wireless mobile providers may be influencing reception quality. BMW is currently working with the wireless mobile providers in order to improve the quality of reception and help alleviate the issues that are caused by the wireless mobile expanded frequencies. Once we have more information about this situation this service information bulletin will be updated. Currently Satellite Radio is provided by SiriusXM for BMW customers via geosynchronous (GEO) satellites located roughly above the equator. This means that the satellite signal to some parts of the United States can come in at an angle as low as 32 degrees to the horizon. Due to this angle, buildings, hills, trees, highway sound blocking walls or other obstacles might block the satellite signal coming from reaching the vehicle receiver antenna and might cause audio cut outs, unless the wireless provider has installed terrestrial repeaters. Reception quality decreases the further north you travel, as the angle of the incoming signal gets smaller. Also adverse weather conditions might affect reception. At this time, in the event of a customer complaint or inquiry on interference noise: Do not replace any parts Do not program or carry out other work on the vehicle Explain to customer about the new Wireless Communications Service (WCS) signals When investigating Satellite Radio cutouts or a temporary loss of reception: Please compare to a similarly equipped vehicle. Keep in mind the roofline of the vehicle, size of the antenna (sharkfin) and location of the antenna on the vehicle will all affect the strength of the reception. Do not compare a Sport Activity Vehicle (SAV) with a high roofline mounted antenna to a different vehicle such as a coupe or convertible with a much lower mounting point of the antenna.
