Today we will see the step-by-step instructions that will allow us to replace the battery of the BMW 1 Series. First, we open the rear hatch of the trunk and start lifting the cargo compartment floor to access the battery compartment; then we remove the central bar and disconnect both battery terminals (positive and negative), as shown in the video.
