Common Bmw E90 Problems

Hi
This morning after dropping kids at school my central locking stopped working i.e. pressing key fob buttons and lock button on dash has no affect on doors, doors stay unlocked when driving etc. I have had this before in 2009 and MP fixed it.
Searching the internet reveals that this is a common problem on the E90 and is either the fuse or actuator. Guys in the States have a Service Bulletin to fix the problem. Does anyone know if there are any service bulletins for this in South Africa?
If it's just the fuse then it should be a cheap fix. The actuator costs about R900 from BMW. If there is a service bulletin then I would rather BM carry some or all of the cost.

HOW TO REMOVE AND REPLACE FRONT DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR ON BMW E90 E91 E92 E93 316i 318i 320i 323i 325i 328i 330i 335i 316d 318d 320d 325d 330d 335d 325xi 328xiIn. Sep 01, 2018 A door lock actuator’s primary function is to perform the directed function when the driver or passenger presses the door lock/unlock button. If you hear any grinding noises coming from inside the door as you press the button, or if the door locks function on their own without prompting, the issue could be related to a failing actuator.
