Opening welding spots (resistance pressure spot welding): Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 BMW 550i GT, 2012 BMW 550i GT, 2011 BMW 550i GT, and 2010 BMW 550i GT. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

If necessary, surface-grind existing unevenness with a belt or angle grinder in the area around the welding spot.

Set punch mark in center of welding spot. Set 8 mm dia. weld spot drill bit on punch mark and drill through top panel.

NOTE: Because the welding spots may have surface-hardened, grind them if necessary with an angle grinder and paper grinding disc.

Use a chisel to separate the sheet metal flange and remove the component.

Follow the special procedure for SPOT WELDS .
