e9x service manual symbols

Arnie69 · 11-11-2018, 01:40 PM

Would somebody be able to send me a picture from their service manual? I'm after the legend for the various servicing symbols (i.e. those checkboxes that the mechanic ticks or crosses).

These ones?

UK site, but same symbols, MOT inspection doesn't apply in Aus.

The listing is close but incomplete compared to the full extent of symbols in the service handbook.

So if the box is ticked, does that mean there was an inspection (e.g. checked the brake pads for wear) or that there was an intervention (e.g. changed the brake pads)?

Tick means service/action was done.
