41 00... Installing Cavity Sealing (Not Expanded)

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2015 BMW 760Li, 2014 BMW 760Li, 2013 BMW 760Li, 2012 BMW 760Li, and 2011 BMW 760Li. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Carry over schematic representation to the relevant vehicle type.

The following repair represents replacement of a cavity bulkhead.

Before these work steps, prepare the new part so that it is ready to install (adapting, cutting to size, applying welding primer etc.).

Sand contact surface of cavity acoustic baffle (1) with coarse-grained sandpaper (grain 50-100).

Clean contact surface (1) with cleaning agent R2.

Apply a bead approx. 15 mm high of SEALANT D1 to contact surface (1).

If necessary apply sealant D1 somewhat thinner on each side, to prevent the sealant from running.
