54 37 ... Removing and installing/replacing all roof shells

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 BMW M3, 2009 BMW M3, and 2008 BMW M3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Only ever replace roof shells individually in succession.

Installation: 

After replacing each individual roof shell, always adjust each roof shell completely and check the folding roof for leaks.

This procedure is the only way of ensuring that no adjustment errors are carried over to the next roof shell.

Only when the folding roof is functionally and visually problem-free again can you proceed to replace the next roof shell.

IMPORTANT: Risk of damage!

Adhere to the procedure described below without fail.

Any deviations from this procedure will result in irreparable damage to the roof mechanism.

Sequence:

  1. Roof shell, middle  
  2. Roof shell, front  
  3. Roof shell, rear
