bro where can I get that BMW scan tool u have in this video.
Sick link to the tool
Hello, are you still very active? This was impressing btw I watched a bunch of times overnight
For everyone here for coding skip to 14:12
You’re welcome
Now I know what my mechanic was talking about; registering the battery. He wants $400 for a battery change on my 5 series. Now I see why. Thanks for making this video available. It helps a lot.
I always replace my batteries after 4 years in the fall. Had to do that “when it’s f****** zero” one too many times. Just decided it would be on my terms after pulling a battery by sled two miles so I could go to work. Great video!
Perfect! As usual and perfect timing I was getting the battery discharge high for about a week. Bit the bullet and took my led acid out and replaced with an agm. Thanks BMWFINATIC
Nice DIY! I replaced mine a few years ago. Batteries always choose the worst weather to die ❄️. It was about -5 the day I did mine
I replaced this one 4 years ago as it was technically my first DIY on this car, so happy that I was able to do it again and film it lol
115° when I did mine
BMW vehicles are nice as long as you take care of the car.
-35 in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada and mine needs to be done.
Thanks for sharing!!! I'm new here so I am really appreciated of Your work. Congratulations my friend!!!
After almost 9,5 years of operation, I had to change my battery of my 135i last saturday. In an E82 this is actually a lot easier and more accessible than an E90. Everything is in reach in the middle of the trunk. What I missed in your video is that you need to plug the other side of the vent opening on the battery when installing. Either take the plug from your old battery, or use the plug provided with the new battery to plug the vent hole that is not in use. There is one on either side of a battery. You plug the grey hose in the + side vent hole (9:00), bot say nothing about plugging the other hole. If you don't plug it, it could lead to venting unwanted gasses into the trunk. And registering the battery with MHD, as long as it is the same spec, is ridiculously simple and quick.
Keep up your awesome videos man ur the best!
Andrew BMW 7511 thanks man!
Discovered this and watched it this morning in the hope it could help me do mine... my stop start was hit and miss and getting worse over past 2 weeks...seemed flat when ignition kicked in, sometimes failed..Local garage said it needs to be registered which is that scan tool i assume and is prob worth investing in. Great video just need to try and find one in uk.
Great DIY, I always wanted to know how to do this for the day my battery dies!
Thanks! This was super helpful, dude! Got it done with ease!
Great video. Really makes me want to .... Bring it to the dealer for battery replacement. 😉
Thank you so much for the information on the loose black connector!!!! I could not figure out where it goes!
Brrrrrr!!!!!! Thanks for filming & posting in what looks to be sub-freeking-zero weather.
Thank you very much! I was really needing it, replaced my 335i battery and did not registered it, it is already failing, only lasted two months
Great DIY , and with 0 degrees , nice 👍
Just like my car! Thank You!!! My battery is almost ready for a change. Soon is going to take a hike!!!
Nice job ....thanks very helpful!
Excellent DIY, thanks!!!
Great videos! Glad I found this channel.
This video helped so much thank you !
awesome video demo. It is straight forward with clear instructions. Can you advise please how you know when it is time to change car battery?
The tie down bracket is a piece of work. I don't know how you got in screwed in so easily, everything else was a piece of cake.
There's this reassuring feeling that comes with a properly done DIY
Great vlog man... thanks for Toughen out the cold... We get rain tomorrow yeah.
SEANJOHN 92663 yeah it’s warming up some here this week 😀
The battery weighs half a ton! I remember when i've changed it on my 330xd! Ps: nice sound!!
For all the DIY videos you’ve posted do you normally remove the negative connection on the battery before performing engine work? Not sure if it’s needed to do spark plugs, injectors, etc. I’ve been religiously following your videos and you’ve given me the courage to start work on my n54 e90 but something I’ve been pondering, worrying about possible shock. Pretty sure I’m spooking myself here. Thanks and keep the vids coming!
My OEM battery was $154.00 DIY priceless... thanks again! Just don’t drop the little 10mm screw at the end of the install! Yes I did! ...
Ahh man the 10mm!
Great video and thanks for sharing your Knowledge.In the statement you made at the top and your ran into a BMW
TECHNICIAN he made the following comments
" as long as the CCA and Amp hours are the same, the computer doesn't need to tell the alternator anything different."
Yet you still registered the battery.Why?
Using the Bavarian software how do you confirm the battery has been registered?
I love old cars, loosen 2 terminals and off it comes.
e46 was the last great bmw.
Good god even the battery replacement is a pain lol. But I love the machine so much.
What is love?
Thank you very much.!! I plan on buying the scan tool this week will it work on my 2006 530i?
Great diys brother. I have to replace mine in my e82 tomorrow. And of course it's snowing. Lol
Lol damn snow
Great DiY man!👌
JUST MESSIN DUDE THAT WAS A GREAT VIDEO !!!!!
Sick beat homie!! I just cleaned my tpm and Bluetooth module and moved it up out of the bottom wheel well.. and now I've left the battery disconnected for the last hour.. about to plug back in - I hope sos lights and sound work now.. either way, if not I'll be back asking questions lol
My lights are not working after changing the battery. Any clue?
Great video.. thank you so much!!!!!
if you connect a spare 12v battery to the terminals in the engine bay you don't lose any of your settings when replacing/disconnecting the old battery.
that sounds smart, however he said to do a "register" so it doesn't think you are running on a 4 year old battery, so maybe that's why he did the reset. IDK, maybe someone who does know can chime in...
Awesome video. Thanks. Can you link the software and connector you used?
What did the software actually do to the cars electronics?
Just got a BMW for the first time. Want to do it myself, but seems like a lot of hazzle.
Hey Lee.. You didn't provide a link for the most important product... The code reader you used. Please provide a link for that.. Thanks
Yuppp
No wonder bmw wants every bmw owner to bring their car up to them for any maintenance. They purposely make everything super difficult, even removing the battery is a chore.
B.M.W. aka "Basic Mechanics can never Work on them" lol 😉
Seems no more difficult than any other trunk mounted battery. You should see the starter on a V8 model haha
My car is FUCKED right now because of the battery being taken out with no memory. My signal lights don’t work, nothing on the control module for that matter, my front windows are stuck rolled down and now have to take it into the shop for a factory restart. Will cost me $300...
@@AQSWDEFRTHYJUKILO hi what memory are u talking about..how do you avoid what happened to u?? u mean your LCM foot module burnt out?
This is not hard.
Hi great video!
Is it possible to register the battery with the bimmer brain if the blue tooth module is faulty?
Great video. Can the battery registration be done with ProTool?
Nice tutorial 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
There is no way I would go through what you went through to change my BMW's battery. Well worth the price to have someone else do it who knows what they are doing.
It didnt seem that bad but i get where you are coming from.
watched your vid 3x and swapped mine in 20min. thx
THANK YOU for the explanation of the little connector at 11:00! I thought I missed connecting it to something and found the explanation of it on your video!
Which scan tool did you use? Please provide the actual link if possible, thanks!
Great video !
Great video, thanks. Looked into the hardware/software though....$200. Might as well take to my local independent. Any other options for a 2012 535 i that don't involve too many hoops?
What if i want to add a second battery for auxillary items, do i need to code it too?
I also wanted to go with an OEM BMW battery on my 2010 BMW Z4 however I found that the Odyssey was a far better Battery than the OEM battery and my Ancel BM700 had no problem registering it.
You made it look easy given that it is so cold. Great job dude.
Yeah it was 0 degrees outside lol
@@BMWFanatic Yea, and I only counted 7 re-takes......
Awesome. Thanks for this. Much appreciated. I have a new 2021 M630 I . Have a doubt. Can I register with Carly coder? Pls let me know.
Love the intro man!! And you gotta grind all the time, snow or not haha
Matthew RK That’s right man 😀👍🏻
Where do you buy the battery? Also what is the importance of resetting the battery with computer?
thank you for your helpful video. exhaust sounds good. engine valve lifter sounds a little loud. i think syn oil is too thin to seal lifters mechanism. i add some regular 10w/40 oil, after 2 weeks drive, no more lifter noise.
kevin fan It’s a little loud in these cold temps and since this was a cold start
@@BMWFanatic Cold start is definitely not at proper engine operating temperature.
Many questions after this video: you can do the registration with INPA, ISTA or NCS Expert and a generic OBD. Besides, you dont say how much time you must have the car turned on the first time so that the ECU measures correctly the SoH (state of health) of the battery. You dont cover as well whether to charge the new battery before installing it. It can be as low as 60%.
Got a question for you that I can’t find info on, thinking you might have that knowledge. Going to replace my daughters X3 F25 battery, wondering if I place a battery charger on the connection point under the hood and then remove the battery will that same all her memory items in her car, yes I will protect the positive cable in the trunk not to short it out. Just wondering to save some time reprogramming , radio, seat and such. Then I can just register the battery with my Carly.
I used Carly for BMW app on an Android phone. It's a little expensive, but overall cheaper than going to the dealer. It allows the user to monitor lots of parameters, check fault codes, reset them, code multiple functions, etc. It's not perfect, sometimes frustrating, but it works. Oh and you can do it wirelessly with a bluetooth adapter.
To reset the battery?
@@guy539 No. To let the ECU know there is a new battery.
Hi I would like to know where can I get the software and the reading adapter for BMW cars?
Great video. Will the car run with a new battery that is not programmed to the car? Like an AGM aftermarket one from advance autoparts?
So while it’s on how do I check if the alternator is working properly?
Can the battery registration be done with INPA?
I plan to use a memory saver cable and power source during battery changeout. Is it really necessary to register the new battery like you did?
Sorry if I missed it, but what did you do so you don’t lose all your settings while the battery is unhooked? Thanks
I changed my battery in my e90 325i about 2-3 months ago, should i still re-registrate it or should i just go on and not care about it?
My prior battery was faulty(random lights started flickering/car sometimes didnt even start) all that was fixed and havent had a problem since! Should i just ignore it? I live in sweden so it gets prettu cold in the winter.
Hi there, the BAVARIAN product is one vin or three vin, what's the diferent? can you explain me this please, thank you very much and God bless.
Nice! Ohio BMW owner here. Just east of Columbus. Go Blue Jackets!
How can I replace just the BST connection on the junction red box thing? Recently had minor front end collision that made it blow.
Nice video but I do have a question, did you have to enter any information for the new battery?
Would you need to code the battery if you're putting on the same model/type of battery
Which one/ programmer do I need for my 745i?? That up to 3 VIN=$287.00?? Thanks=) Eero from Florida
I am interested in the Bavarian technic scan tool? which one did you get?
How do you get the ibs sensor off the negative?
is it possible to remove cells from individual packs without harming them?
If I just want to reset the car by removing the negative terminal to see if a turn signal issue resolves do I need to register the battery. It is only a year and a half old
Don’t you need to enter the Amp hour for the battery? I have seen that in other videos. Thanks
What if you replace it with a battery that is different specs than what was removed?
do we need to have backup battery and connecting before remove(old battery) and install (new battery)?
hey man I’m a noob and was wondering bmw has got 2 batteries right? so are we suppose to always replace a new one for the back and keep the front one?
Great vid!! Very helpful. I’ve seen in your pass videos you have the jb4 tune. Did you have to do anything with that with the change of the battery? I have the jb4 tune on my 335i e90. So wondering if that had to be reprogrammed. Thank you!
Hey man could u tell me why my 2011 bmw 335i xdrive would make a whinning noise when backing up a hill or driving forward up a hill its coming from the engine area thx
The following comment was made to me by a BMW mechanic at the dealership when I was purchasing my battery: “No need to waste money registering the battery if it’s an exact replacement“. That was over 4 years ago and my electrical system is just fine.
I dunno, I was told yesterday by a neighbor they paid $700 for a freaking battery. I have a 2006 M3, 2019 GLS550, 2011 E63 and 2020 E63S...cant say I have EVER had to "program a battery". Seems like a cash grab to me.
Looks very easy straight forward but what if I don’t have the scanning tool, what can I do ?
Hey BMW Fanatic! I could use some help if possible lol. Do you know if the Bavarian technic Basic single vehicle kit has the option for registering a new battery?? Or is it just the enthusiast and professional kits? Cant get ahold of them until Monday so I figured I would ask. I need to replace the battery on my 08 e90 asap lol
Absurd complexity for no purpose other than draining you of time and money.
Ganged out my battery car want start just spins help 2013 528i
Disagree. You’re like my naggy wife. She’ll exaggerate her point thinking to win an argument when all she does is make her statement untrue.
Engineers should care more about owner repairs but it is not a priority for BMW. There was wasted space behind the firewall. And freeing up space in the front allows for more flexibility in design. Pretty car.
And for BMW management, it prevents discourages user repairs. No, they would prefer you not do your own repairs. And types like you and me need more discouragement than just needing some Torx sockets.
Oh, I wrote the above without watching the video. You MUST be joking!! I was thinking I was going to see something like the battery placement in a 2018 218d Active Tourer. About $300 labor to change the battery. Looks like you have to remove with wiper arms along with most of the firewall trim to get the battery out. Jesus, you are a whiner. In the trunk behind a panel is complex?
Can you please provide us with the link of the software to reset the battery. Thank you.
It's adaptation not adaption. BTW, do you know how much they charge for this at the dealership?
Nice video! Thanks for posting. BTW @ 17:05 is why I'll never buy a car from Ohio again. Bought a 2 year old car with 14,000 miles and the rust on the bottom and throughout was UNBELIEVABLE...
My 2006 325i lost power it starts up but does not go faster then 10mph n has the battery light on can someone help me out.
Great to no that it can be done remotely.
If you disconnect battery to reset modules , will it reset my factory alarm ,
In a 2008 525i n52k msport ?
Cheers
Good info!
Is it normal to need the junction box to be replaced? BMW is claiming mine is blown.
11:00, what cable is that and what is likely to happen if you connect it to the positive?
Can you use Protool to reset battery adaptation?
what is the software called to reset the new battery etc.?
Does even the corporate edition without i drive need battery registration?
why did you us a screw driver to remove the connections from the power distribution module? if you follow the cord to the base of the connection, there is a button you can push to easily pull the connector free
