3.3 Installation of spacer (spacer buffer/dual-lock tapes)
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 BMW X5 M, 2012 BMW X5 M, 2011 BMW X5 M, and 2010 BMW X5 M. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Remove all remnants of existing spacers completely before sticking on new spacers.
The exact position of the spacers must be retained (see vehicle-specific repair instructions).
Incorrectly fitted spacers will result in:
- Window glass breakage due to tension
- Leakage (if the spacer is in the adhesive area)
- Wind noises
