Removal & Installation of Quick-Release Coupling with ID Marking

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 10 other vehicles, including the 2003 BMW 530i, 2003 BMW 525i, 2002 BMW 530i, 2002 BMW 525i, and 2001 BMW 530i. 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.
