After reading the service bulletin it sounds like an easy fix and may be easy enough to do when I do the first service just to prevent any potential problems.
For any of you mechanical people out there would this be as easy at it sounds? Just take the cover off, clean the bolt, put some thread lock on it, and put it back together with a new seal? If that is it I'll add it to my first service which I plan on doing myself.
Thanks,

I would recommend that you do it to all SIX bolts
You're right, initially I thought there was only one bolt because of how the diagram was drawn but I do see that there are 6 bolts now. I still believe I can do this but my confidence level just went down a little!
Before you take it in, make sure that they have a replacement gasket on hand.OK that's cool
I have to stop by there today anyway
One of those push plugs in my dash fell out the day I got it
one of the larger ones that hold the plasticin around the cluster
the center is about the size of a dime.
They said they'd just give me one, so I'm stopping by afterwork, I'll ask about the TSB while I'm there, see what they say
i haven't noticed any sound yet on my 08' (355miles) but i'll bring it to there attention with my 1st service. good lookin' out cookie!

It's a easy job...just do one bolt at a time
i think i'll do that because i know how careless the "stealership" can be.Thank you, Sir!
If you are experiencing ANY noticeable clanking at all,, and are not sure as to how to do this,, take the easy route out and schedule the appointment!
I advise taking the lower panels off to expedite the job and reduce opportunities for scratching!
