BMW 5, 6, & 7, Series Recall |
Possible reduction in brake servo assistance |
 BMW announced a problem with the 5, 6, & 7, Series affecting a total of 10,522 vehicles.
It is possible that engine oil can enter the brake servo, via the brake vacuum pump and vacuum hose. If this occurs, it could damage the brake servo membrane, which may leak, so causing a reduction in braking assistance and a requirement to apply increased pedal force to achieve the same braking efficiency. Vehicles built from 30/10/2001 to 23/11/2009 are at risk.
The following remedial action is necessary to address this problem. Recall all affected vehicles for the fitment of a modified servo hose. In addition, the checking of the brake servo for contamination and replacement if required.
How to check your car's VIN number - vehicle identification number |
