BMW X3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW X3 E83, MK 1 - Years 2003-2010
Part: Differential
Operation: How do you replace the rear differential oil on a BMW X3?

In order to replace the oil in the rear differential of the BMW X3, you need to access the lower part of the car: the differential will obviously be located in correspondence with the central part of the rear axle shaft. By locating the oil drain plug, it will be possible to unscrew it in order to let all the used oil flow into a suitably positioned container; when all the oil has completely drained out, it will be possible to top up from the same breather. It will be necessary to have a plunger to insert the oil inside the differential.
