WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 BMW M Roadster, 2002 BMW M Coupe, 2001 BMW M Roadster, and 2001 BMW M Coupe. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
EFFECT OF DIFFERING ADHESIVE QUANTITIES
| Too little adhesive: |
Too much adhesive: |
- Windscreen rests too low in body cutout
- Strains/tensions may occur (windscreen breakage)
- Insufficient squeezing of adhesive bead (leaking)
|
- Windscreen rests too high in body cutout
- Wind noise may occur
- Strains/tensions may occur (windscreen breakage)
- Fouling of add-on parts by emerging adhesive
- Adhesive on uninsulated strainer pressure lines of antenna(s) (interference of reception)
