Do you want to perform maintenance on your BMW yourself? Let's see how to proceed with removing an air temperature sensor. Lift your car with a column lift to the desired height, then, using a metal serrated trim tool, remove the plastic rivets securing the wheel splash shield.

Unscrew the screws located under the bumper with a screwdriver or socket wrench. Remove the lower piece of the splash shield where the dedicated air temperature sensor is located.

Replace it with the new part and reassemble everything in reverse order.
