To replace the battery in a BMW X1, open the hood to access the engine compartment, as the battery is located just below the windshield. There will be a plastic cover that needs to be removed by loosening the appropriate mounting screws.

Now, disconnect the terminals connected to the battery and also loosen its mounting bolts. This way, the battery can be extracted from its housing and replaced with a new part.

After the replacement, reinstall all the removed parts.
