SI B28 01 10
Double-clutch Transmission with Drivelogic
September 2010
Technical Service
PERFORM THE PROCEDURE OUTLINED IN THIS SERVICE INFORMATION ON ALL
AFFECTED VEHICLES THE NEXT TIME THEY ARE IN THE SHOP FOR MAINTENANCE OR
REPAIRS AND PRIOR TO RETAIL DELIVERY.
SUBJECT
Service Action: Program Control Units (DCT)
MODEL
E82, E88, E89, E90, E92, E93 vehicles with DCT transmission produced from 1/08/2008 to 8/31/2010
SITUATION
Due to errors in the diagnostic software of the DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission) module, the "Freeze frame
data" of the DCT memory can not be read out when using aftermarket scan tools.
CAUSE
DCT software error
AFFECTED VEHICLES
This Service Action involves E90, E92, E93 M3 vehicles with the S65 engine and DCT transmission and
E82, E88, E89, E92, E93 vehicles with N54/N54T engine and DCT transmission which were produced from
01/08/2008 up to 08/31/2010.
In order to determine whether a specific vehicle has had this Service Action completed or is affected by this
Service Action, first check the B-pillar label for code number 575. If code number 575 has been punched
out, the campaign has already been performed. If code number 575 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 ISTA/P 2.39.0 or a more recent version.
E8x/E9x – Integration level (new): E89x-10-09-501 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
575. After the vehicle has been checked and/or
corrected, obtain a label (SD 92-380) and:
A. Emboss your BMW center warranty number in
the middle of the label (1);
B. Punch out code number 575 (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.
WARRANTY INFORMATION
Covered under the terms of the BMW New Vehicle/SAV Limited Warranty, or any applicable Federal,
State, or BMW Emissions Warranty.
Defect Code: 00 28 01 01 00
Labor Operation: Labor Allowance: Description:
00 59 716 1 FRU Programming and coding reimbursed via
a different Technical Campaign or repair
00 59 717 8 FRU Program and code the control units
00 59 718 9 FRU Program and code the control units

In cases where ISTA requires the replacement of control modules or additional programming because
certain control modules failed to program correctly, or just an initialization is required, print out the
Measures Plan and/or Final Report and attach these reports to the RO in the vehicle file. This additional
work should be claimed under the defect code listed in this bulletin, using the labor operation and labor
allowance from the KSD2.

Thanks, so just diagnostic stuff....seems a little smoother, maybe its my imagination. Also the i-drive menus are slightly changed.

Can't confirm. I won't have this applied to my car until August 5th.

When the dealer performed the update on my car, I noticed that the cold start is smoother.
Other than that, I haven't really noticed any changes.

Reviving this thread...we're due to have this update. Anyone else had this done?

My 1200 mile service is this Friday.
