SUBJECT

Service Action: Program Control Units (SCR)
MODEL

F02 (7 Series Sedan)
F10 (5 Series Sedan)
F15 (X5)
With the N57T diesel engine
F25 (X3)
F30 (3 Series Sedan)
F31 (3 Series Sports Wagon)
With the N47T diesel engine
SITUATION

An error in the calculation of the DEF line pressure by the SCR module software could occur at temperatures
below 32°F/0°C.
This could cause the Service Engine Soon light (MIL) to come on with a pressure plausibility fault stored in the
SCR module.
AFFECTED VEHICLES

This Service Action involves certain BMW vehicles with the N47T and N57T diesel engines produced from
7/1/2013 to 12/8/2014.
First check if a Service Action label with a code number 730 is already attached to the B-pillar.
If a code number 730 has been punched out, the Campaign has already been performed and no further action is
necessary.
Vehicles which require this Service Action to be completed will show it as “Open” when checked either in the
"Service Menu" of DCSnet (Dealer Communication System) or with the Key Reader.
PROCEDURE

Program the vehicle using the latest version of ISTA/P.
F02

Target integration level: F001-14-11-505 or higher

F10

Target integration level: F010-14-11-505 or higher

Target integration level: F020-14-11-505 or higher

F15, F25, F26

Target integration level: F025-14-11-505 or higher

Note that ISTA/P will automatically reprogram and code all programmable control modules that do not have the
latest software.
Always connect a BMW approved battery charger/power supply (SI B04 23 10).
For information on programming and coding with ISTA/P, refer to Centernet / Aftersales Portal / Service /
Workshop Technology / Vehicle Programming.
LABEL INSTRUCTIONS

This Service Action has been assigned code number
730. After the vehicle has been checked and/or
corrected, obtain a label (SD 92-464) and:
A. Emboss your BMW center warranty number in
the middle of the label (1);
B. Punch out code number 730 (2), printed on the
label; and
C. Affix the label to the B-pillar as shown.
If the vehicle already has a label from a previous Service Action/Recall Campaign, affix the new label next to the
old one. Do not affix one label on top of another one, because a number from an underlying label could appear in
the punched-out hole of the new label.
