The 2nd picture is a close up of the item in question...I can pull up on the metal cable, and it's spring loaded.

Can anyone enlighten me?

Thanks
What is your model year? If it is prior to a specific date...and you have the little orange tool...it may be the manual release of the parking brake.

See page 71 (below)...I downloaded a 2013 F01/F02 PDF owners manual that describes how to use the tool to manually release the parking brake with the tool that was provided. Is the frame that has the release point circled in red the same thing that is in the pics you provided?
