An official EU Safety Gate notice concerns BMW - X3 (G01) - X4 (G02) - Série 5 (G30). The failure concerns the RSW22 starter, type RWT (reinforced for watertightness). Increased abrasion of the magnetic contact can lead to the formation of deposits at the lowest point of the relay interior. This in turn can increase the resistance of the relay contact, causing accidental ignition or even short circuits, possibly leading to a thermal reaction and fire. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles. Published 2026-02-27.
What to do now
The source does not provide specific consumer instructions. Follow the official EU Safety Gate notice for next steps.
