Replacement screen and radio controls on BMW 3 Series

Model: BMW Serie 3 F30, F31 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Key

Using a plastic lever in the slots, remove the lower plate of the central dashboard. In the same way, remove the large plastic containing the central air vents from its seat (disconnect the connector). If you want to replace the car radio controls, at this point unscrew the two torx screws now uncovered and placed above them, then the two screws located below. If, on the other hand, you are only interested in replacing the screen, there are two other torxes to be removed which are located in the area where the vents were: these fix the screen so, once unscrewed, you can remove it.

How to Remove the Front Brake Rotor on a BMW X3

Let's see how to remove the front brake rotor on a BMW X3. Position your car on a column lift and raise it to a comfortable height for working. Loosen the bolts with a socket wrench or air drill and remove the wheel, then start loosening the bolts of the brake caliper to detach it from the bracket, using a screwdriver to remove the brake pads. Now remove the caliper bracket and loosen the bolts on the brake rotor (using a Torx screwdriver), pull the rotor towards you to slide it off the wheel hub. Install the new brake rotor with all the associated bolts, tighten the caliper bracket to the rotor and the brake pads, then install the brake caliper, making sure to tighten all the bolts securely. Before mounting the wheel, bleed the brake caliper and then tighten the bolt. Finally, install the wheel with the bolts.
