If code number 638 has been punched out, the campaign has already been performed. If code number 638 has not been punched out, it will be necessary to utilize the "Service Menu" of DCSnet (Dealer Communication System) or the Key Reader. Based on the response of the system, either proceed with the corrective action or take no further action. PROCEDURE Program the vehicle using the latest version of ISTA/P. Target integration level: F020-12-11-502 or higher Note that ISTA/P will automatically reprogram and code all programmable control modules that do not have the latest software. 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 638. After the vehicle has been checked and/or corrected, obtain a label (SD 92-417) and: A. Emboss your BMW center warranty number in the middle of the label (1); B. Punch out code number 638 (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. 2013 BMW 328i xDrive Sedan AWD (F30) L4-2.0L Turbo (N20) Copyright ? 2013, ALLDATA 10.52SS Page 2 WARRANTY INFORMATION Disclaimer
