OPENING BRAZED CONNECTIONS REP-ALG-RAGRP41-4105305 - V.2 (Countryman 2017-2023, Except PHEV)

The "Bonding and Riveting" repair method involves replacing the watertight brazed connection with adhesive.

This gives rise to a new procedure for opening brazed connections.

Grind brazed seam with a belt grinder. This keeps the influence of heat in the area around the brazed seam as small as possible.

IMPORTANT: Never use a gas flame.

All traces of brazing solder do not have to be removed.

Do not grind body panels thin.
