Removal & Installation of Quick-Release Coupling with ID Marking

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 61 other vehicles, including the 2002 BMW Z3, 2002 BMW M Roadster, 2002 BMW M Coupe, 2001 BMW Z3, and 2001 BMW M Roadster. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Push quick-release coupling (1) against pipe (4) thereby relieving strain on spring (2). Press plastic ring (3) into quick-release coupling (1) and remove coupling (1). See Fig 1.
  2. To install, markings (K) on coupling and pipe (4) must be flush. Push quick-release coupling (1) onto pipe (4) until a "click" can be heard. To check that quick-release coupling has been installed correctly, pull it back forcefully.
