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

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 18 other vehicles, including the 2015 BMW Alpina B7L xDrive, 2015 BMW Alpina B7 xDrive, 2015 BMW 750i xDrive, 2015 BMW 750Li xDrive, and 2015 BMW 740Li xDrive. 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 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 (picture 2-6).
