64 53...Instructions for replacement of air conditioning capacitors and radiator/coolers

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 23 other vehicles, including the 2013 BMW 328xi, 2013 BMW 328i, 2012 BMW 335xi, 2012 BMW 328xi, and 2012 BMW 328i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
IMPORTANT:

Even when they are correctly installed or due to normal driving, coolers (oil cooler, radiator, charge air cooler) or air conditioning capacitors may show slight impressions or deformations on their discs (picture).

This is not damage.

Radiators, cooler or capacitors are not to be replaced in this case.

NOTE: The deformations shown in illustration "1" (see Fig 1) can be bent back with a standard fin comb.

Damage to lines carrying media or on the flat pipe require replacement of the radiator/ or air conditioning condenser. Examples of such damage are shown in illustrations "2", "3", "4", "5", and "6" (see Fig 1).
