CORRECTION
With I level S18A-22-11-530, the check control message concept was revised and improved.
Program the seat modules (FAH, BFH).
PROCEDURE

Workplace) applications.
2. Is the current vehicle integration level:
Model
G05, G07
Target integration level
S18A-22-11-530 or higher
NO: Proceed to Step 3
YES: Proceed to Step 4
3. Program the vehicle using ISTA 4.38.3x or higher (released November 15, 2022) which supports I-level
S18A-22-11-531.
Note that ISTA 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) when performing
programming.
For information on programming and coding with ISTA, refer to Dealer Universal Portal / TIS / Technical
Documentation / Diagnostics and Programming / Programming Documentation.
Then reassess the vehicle.

See information on ‘washer under the seat rails’ and the ‘cam interlock on latch’ since these can cause
a similar CCM.
