WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 BMW 745i, 2004 BMW 745i, 2003 BMW 745i, and 2002 BMW 745i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Pull out strap and make sure it emerges without jerking.
Check belt strap for
- folding unraveling
- pinches
- cracks and tears
- traces of melting
Retract belt strap; here the inertia reel mechanism must retract the strap automatically and without squeaking noises, the last section of the strap may have to be fed in. Pull out belt strap in short tugs - locking reel must lock.
