34 33 071 Replacing vacuum hose for brake booster (N63)

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 21 other vehicles, including the 2017 BMW 550i GT xDrive, 2017 BMW 535i GT xDrive, 2017 BMW 535i GT, 2016 BMW 550i GT xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i GT xDrive. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
IMPORTANT: Before beginning work, fully press the brake pedal several times to reduce the vacuum pressure in the brake servo. This makes it easier to remove the vacuum hose.
Vacuum hose and non-return valve are welded together and are replaced together as a single unit.

Necessary preliminary tasks: 

Pull off partition wall seal upper part (1) in direction of arrow.

Remove non-return valve (2) from brake servo.
