Can we get a sniffle count?! LOL
My allergies have been killing me guys, i know this was a small and very late upload, but finals are coming up and ive genuinely been busy.
IF you guys have ANY questions feel free to ask in the comments ill answer them all !
Legend has it that Shumile's mom is still pressing the brakes.
Mike Davidian OMG I was gonna edit something onto the screen like "why is she still holding the brakes? LOL" wow that's so funny I got a kick out of this lmaooooo
Legend also has it that his mum goes around telling people if their break lights still work or not.
Lol
Thank you! That’s exactly what I needed! I’m recently divorced and never had to do this before. Your video made it super easy!!
Just an FYI. If your have the factory "tool" kit (under the felt, right side, battery cover) you should have a reversible screw driver. The handle has a 10mm opening to remove those nuts.
This came in clutch for me today while trying to swap the battery of my e90, thanks!
Yessss! I think i have that!!
Thanks bud. I didn't know where to start. You made it so easy for me to replace my reverse light bulb. Regards from Cape Town. South Africa 🇿🇦
Thanks man. You just saved me $86 dollars at the dealership!
My dealer here wants 198.00 to diagnose my taillight issue I told them bro it clearly says left side and yes it’s out I said he’ll nah just give me the oil change 😂🤦🏽♂️
Thanks buddy, you saved me 20$ (400 south african rands) local service shop said removing the light is like removing half of the rear end, u made it look easy and it wasn't too bad on my side. Keep well.
Utah man thanks, i just wish you knew that all that grease directly touching your new bulbs is gonna make them last a lot less. Great and simple video!
I know absolutely nothing about DIY car stuff and this video helped me out a lot!! Done in about ~10 minutes!
Thanks so much for making this video. My warning light came on this morning. Now I can fix it myself without having to go back to the dealership!
Appreciate it! Instructions were spot on! Took me ten minutes and only cost $7 for a new set of lights.
Nice tutorial, I had a similar problem, but instead of the bulbs, it was the pins at the bulb connector that was faulty. According the the Mechanic, the pins were fried, if only there was easy access to purchase the BMW parts...
Thanks man, got all 4 bulbs changed, very easy after your demo
When replacing incandescent bulbs make sure not to try getting the oils from your skin to avoid premature burnout!
Top video! You have inspired me to fix my broken taillight myself, rather than take it to the garage...
Thanks a lot man, literally took me only 5 minutes to change the bulb after watching this video.
Very helpful...especially since the dealership charges $85 to replace the light. Cost me $2.67 (bought the bulb from Amazon)
Thank you for making this 6 years ago😂😂
Thanks for the show how Bro. Followed your instructions step by step and did it in less then 15 mins. Thanks again !
Does the sensor automatically turn the error message off or do you need to manually reset it?
Yea it automatically resets
You may already know this but you can get a hold of some local honey take a teaspoon day to help with your allergies, you'll be fine. Great videos keep em coming....
Seriously? Does that work? Why have i not heard of this?!
VaderMan904 yes it has to be local honey
Shumile Swift sorry for the late reply, yeah local honey will definitely help with allergies...
Can we all agree its the magical 10mm that always goes missing
Omg I love your videos so much please keep posting !!!
Wow. I was trying to
Support my favorite youtuber...
I dont talk to guys with CVT's
Shumile Swift I don't talk to guys who get walked if they don't get their boost right
Thanks for this video! Helped me change my bulb earlier without having to take it to the garage. 👍
You have done a great job explaining and making this video. Nice and simple! Well Done! It is definitely worth video about
Swift, do a vid on reliable your car has been. How many miles do you currently have and what major repairs (if any) have you done. Cool channel btw
John G. TV I want to, but it's too soon. I've only had the car for 6 months. Nothing has really come up, I got the car at around 64k miles, now I'm at 70k, no maintenance done to it yet, except brake pads.
Your video gave let me know exactly what to expect, and helped save time. Thank you!
If you’re left break light isn’t working anymore and you put a new bulb but still doesn’t work. Then you most likely burnt the fuse. This is very common on f30 bmw’s just a heads up! (-: cost about 160-200 to fix and repair from a shop.
My work but i got parking right 2 stage malfuction light on.
My left brake light and left turn indicator are both not working at the same time and the parking light is dim. I'm like how can they both conk off together. Might be the fuse, thanks
Sucks for you to get ripped off but all you have to do is locate the burnt fuse and replace it, it’s not that hard
hey, how does the LED in de taillight works? Because is only see a connection for the bulbs. so how are the leds connected?
The LEDs are in the housing, the are powered on by a plug that immediately gets plugged as you plug in that housing that holds the bulb, its kinda weird, if one of those lights were to go out, I think it would be a costly fix rather than just a bulb change...
Great vid! How do you remove the inner tail light assembly? The one on the trunk.
Thank you for your informative video! It was a quick 15 min fix that could of cost way more at the dealership.
Nice video, but what size bulb fits there, so I know what to buy before taking it apart.
Thanks!
Hi Shumile, another great vid! Thanks for explaining clearly.
Ive changed my left brake light and indicator light but the light is still dim and brake light flickers. Do you know what it could be?
Thanks
Brilliant. Thanks. Easy peasy.
nice video man straight to the point
Would changing the bulbs to LED cause error codes in a 2015 F30?
My break light just went out last night but im confused as to why the daytime running lights weren't dead either are they not the same bulb? You can see the daytime lights running but once i hit the breaks the one break bulb is out.
I have same issue. Brake light and turn indicator or rear left stopped working together. Parking light/drl works
Thank you so much. I just changed my Brake Blub in minutes thanks to you Sharing!!
Thank you! Everything you said to do worked perfectly. Great job! Bobby B
Been getting a "left brake lamp malfunction" and I've already changed out both bulbs. Any help?
edotjdot saaaaame here, man.
Honestly same here ! This happened to me today ! It might be the cord that’s broken. That’s what I’m assuming for mine
Just got the same warning. You guys figure it out?
I have same error! did you figure out wat do to
I've gotten the same error. Took it to BMW dealer & they replaced the bulb. The error message went off. The next day it popped back up again. They said it's most likely the housing.
What kind of bulb is it?
I'm getting the right brake light malfunction intermittently. It comes and goes randomly. Dealer said there was no issue (of course). I replaced mine with a Sylvania 7506 12V 21W. Car didn't like it at all. I put the old P21W bulb back in and it was happy again, for now. What did you use?
Have you thought about changing you steering wheel to the m sport? Because if you are thinking about it, make a video PLEAZUS
Yeah i said it in my last video, thats one of the only things i want done to the interior, and ofcourse ill make a vid, that would be so fun to watch lmao
You're awesome 😁
JayCookies really? That's a first lmao
I was told to never touch the outside clear glass with bare fingers due to greasy fingers will cause bulb to over heat
Any plans to upgrade the headlight :)
whats a good price for a 2013 F30 with 77k miles
I wouldn't pay more than 15k.. depends on which one, 328? Loaded with NAV? AWD? depends on the Trim, if its M sport its immediately worth way more. But my car, like exactly mine, i wouldn't pay more than 13-14k
unfortunately these cars depreciate heavily after 50k miles.
Did your car have any previous accident on it ?
Clips solow it had a clean carfax, but I don't believe it, I think it's had some work on it around the passenger door
Big help, thanks!
What is your outro music?
Informative video, by the way. Thank you.
The 328s have wiring issues so don’t beat your head against the wall. Sometimes the bulbs won’t do the trick my first and last BMW
Scotty this isnt true at all lol
Which editing software do you use? Did you make the intro yourself? Great vids
Flip Coin I use Sony vegas mostly, and used after effects to make the intro, yes I made it myself
Great video! Always a need for something like this especially with myself not quite being a hands on type of guy just because it doesn't interest me or I do not know enough about something or just flat out don't want to make things worse. Seen your video first and went with it today as I was at Auto Zone getting this changed out by a lady associate. She had known everything about what you explained in the video and was just stuck on how to remove the bulbs as she was just twisting the bulbs and not pushing then twisting. Anyways after seeing your video everything came out great, but I thought you had to wear gloves when touching/changing out bulbs? Thanks a bunch:)
Thanks a lot for this video. Just did this exact thing and video was very helpful
Thanks 👍 very helpful video From Nick Ayivor from London England UK 🇬🇧
thank you... that worked exactly as you described!
wsup I have the same car F30 RWD M sports .im in NYC too :) playing forza for the Xbox 360. got almost the same plan's for my F30 ..we should link up..do some speed runs in NYC hwy ..:)
Jraze18 s1000rr/328i I don't speed man lol, but we can play forza if you get the Xbox one!
Thanks bro bmw wanted to charge me $99 to do this lol. much love
Thanks for the video ... really helped me a lot.
Thanks
Hi, I had a prong break off the actual car connector that melted into the housing piece. I see on Amazon they sale both together but for the color wires going to the car itself , is the only way to swap it is to splice it?
Thanks man your a life saver
Does anybody know if the old taillight style could have led bulbs in this housing?
Yeah been wondering that too
Arsalan Hussain can’t believe I commented this 5 months ago already lol but yes it definitely does. Just have to make sure you’ve got the correct bulb type, and it actually tells you the bulb type on the inside of the taillights. Did the conversion myself on my F34.
Any way you could show how to replace the "inside ones" the ones that are on the trunk?
Thank you I needed this!!
I change a new light but it still doesn’t work
I doubt it is but do the bulbs have to be specific?
This helped me out alot
That's a newer model BMW how come it does not have led tail lights? I have a 08 E92 335xi OEM tail lights but am wondering if there are any plug and play l LED light bulbs into my existing OEM Tail lights
Thanks for the video! This helped a lot.
Super informative 👌
Hey what kind of bulbs does it take? I have to replace mine now.
is this the same method for the g30 2018 model? my light needs positioning. its not correct
Fantastic video
Thanks for the info definitely helped
Single filament lightbulb???
Follow exactly your instructions, still unable to pull out the lamp cover !
For some reason my battery died when I did this. Is it because I didn’t unplug the wires? it wouldn’t come off so I left it plugged.
Test the lights before assembling all back.
What type of bulbs are those in the tail light assembly?
Would like to know what lightbulbs do u use or if u can put a link on we’re to get them thank you
What specific bulbs did you use?
It for sure helped me thanks for the vid :)
I have a f30 m sport. Do all f30s have LED tail lights or do you add them? Don't know what's in myne
Thanks man very informative
I did it so easy thank you
Super helpful, thanks!
What size bulbs are used in the tail light?
Hey are you still running the run flats?
Salter yes unfortunately
you the man bro
removing the light harness isn't necessary. Use a rachet/socket is better. You will need to change the code to indicate LED or you will see flickering of your lights.
I have a second stage lamp malfunction on my right tail light what do I do
did you disconnect the battery?
Does it have to be a specific bulb?
What brand bulb did you use?
Dude you are awesome!! Thank you
Thank you lil brother
Helpful, but I did raise an eyebrow to using that adjustable wrench lol.
Hey Swift......NEVER change a bulb without GLOVES Dude !
Thank you very much!
You helped alot thanks Man
Thankyou for this clip
great....nice and sweet. Thank you
Thanks you
Does this work on 2012 528i xdrive?
