Interior - Luggage Compartment Partition Mounting Pin Broken

R172 REMAINING LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT PARTITION BRACKET

Themen-Nummer LI68.64-P-053785

Version 1

Konstruktionsgruppe 68.64 Partition

Stand 07-24-2012

Gultigkeit R172 up to production date 09.12.2011 or VIN WDD 17244481F036452

Anderungsgrund





Beanstandung:
Breakage of mounting pin for partition wall/remaining luggage compartment lock (Figure 1) or irregular engagement of the trunk luggage cover.

Ursache:
Threaded pin on longitudinal member of bodyshell installed in slightly offset position in production.

The trunk partition bracket (Figure 2) therefore fits poorly.

Note:
Cleanpoint in production is as of VIN WDD 17244481F036452.

Abhilfe:
Check left and right trunk partition brackets for correct installation; if necessary remove and enlarge the Y-shaped cutout (Figure 2) by approx. 2 mm using a suitable file.

The bracket must lie snugly on the longitudinal member trim (Figure 3).

Replace remaining luggage compartment partition.

When the bracket is installed correctly the trunk partition engages evenly on the left and right sides.
