How to replace the battery of the BMW 1 Series

Model: BMW Serie 1 E81, E82, MK 1, E87 - Years 2004-2013
Part: Battery

When the battery of the BMW 1 Series stops working and it is necessary to replace it, we do not necessarily have to go to the workshop. In fact, thanks to our short video tutorial, you can perform this operation on your own. We open the front hood of the car and proceed with the removal of the nut of the bracket that locks the battery inside the hood. After removing the nut, we can disconnect the negative terminal and the positive terminal. Once the power is disconnected, we remove the battery and insert the new one. We connect the terminals; first the positive terminal and then the negative terminal, and we lock the battery with the bracket.

This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
