41 00... Position Of Shaped Parts For Cavity Sealing
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 33 other vehicles, including the 2018 BMW M6, 2018 BMW 650i xDrive, 2018 BMW 650i, 2018 BMW 640i xDrive, and 2018 BMW 640i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Cavity sealing is carried out in specific body areas in order to reduce interior noise and to reduce condensation. To do this, shaped parts are inserted in the cavities. These shaped parts adapt themselves optimally due to heating of the body to approx. 180°C by expansion to the shape of the cavities.
Because it is not possible to heat the body to this extent for a body repair, a different procedure . See 41 00... INSTALLING CAVITY SEALING (EXPANDED) , 41 00... INSTALLING CAVITY SEALING (NOT EXPANDED) and 41 00... INSTALLING A CAVITY SEALING WITH 2-COMPONENT PU CAVITY FOAM has been specified for this situation.
