2) Quick-connect coupling with indication pins: Assembly

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 BMW 328i, 2011 BMW 328i, 2010 BMW 328i, and 2009 BMW 328i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

When replacing hydraulic line: remove transportation lock (T).

Push quick-connect coupling (1) onto pipe (3) until both indication pins (4) can be seen and felt to point outwards at outside diameter of housing.

To check that quick-connect coupling (1) has been correctly fitted, feel indication pins (4) at outside diameter of housing. When correctly seated, indication pins (4) cannot be pressed into housing.

IMPORTANT: Coupling is not correctly engaged if both indication pins (4) fail to protrude from housing. Leakage is thus unavoidable.
