I like the separate camera person angles and the microphone you use! I can see everything you're doing, and hear everything your'e saying! Thanks for filming an sharing!
Thanks for making this video! I changed my battery last week in a 435i. You're not kidding about the strain on my back lol you popped that heavy-ass battery out with ease.
dude nice vid straight to the point, what were some other symptoms of the battery going bad? long crank times? gauges going crazy? electronics in the cabin shutting off and then coming back on?
Thank you! Main thing is the blower motor not working. Along with that, the battery just dies fast with accessories on. A few people also have weird dash light issues and sometimes the car doesn’t want to crank at all because of the voltage shutdown, so people think it’s the starter when it really is just the battery
I would get AGM Battery, that Everrstart only lasted my 335i 3 yrs. The original AGM lasted 10. Installed one today it also helps to maintain it with a Battery Tender.
Hey if you can help me with this I would have really appreciate it I'm using beamer code and it shows that I have 41% on my battery do I need to re-register a new battery
I dont know the certifide mechanic truth,Ii heard the certain car manufactures prefer specific brand of batteries or else you get weird fault codes come up with out warning. At this piont i just buy the exact manufacter replacement just to not deal with unexpected headaches. This for me goes for Jaguar, BMW , Mercedes and GM Corvette's.
I followed this step by step bought the exact same battery as my original one in vehicle and as I’m all done I go and start my car and it’s now saying restraint system malfunction. Is this something you have seen? What should I do?
@@TroyNoChill yes it was some weird piece that the battery didn’t have and it also needed to be coded to my car right after so just get it done by a shop if you don’t know how to code
@@Keigan-Davies I just got the car a week ago and swapped my e30 battery and drove the car. I haven’t coded It yet but heard It wasn’t detrimental to drive but definitely should get It coded ASAP so the car won’t misuse the new battery
Hello i have a 08 bmw 528i with a bosch amg battery. my question is if you have an amg battery an you replace with an Walmart H7 or H8 amg battery is the coding necessary? Also is coding and registering considered the same thing?
Anytime! And as long as your battery was a white one, nope! It’s always good to code it if you have the software, but not the end of the world if you don’t!
See that is all you need, Walmart , if you can find them . Some people seem to need a BMW battery with the little sticker. BMW batteries are made by all different battery companies. Exide , banner, etc, there is no such thing as a “BMW” battery. The biggest issue is that Walmart never has them in stock.
My battery was completely dead key stuck windows wouldn’t move so I just replaced the battery everything lit up but it won’t start ? I hear the starter trying to work did I do something wrong
First thing you have to do is register your battery so the ibs recognizes it n that you changed it or you can disconnect the blue ibs connection it should start if no starter issues
kinda, disconnecting minee and reconnecting a new caused a overvoltage and blew one of my confort module....common issue, yes it is advise to connect a 3rd party battery voltage while doing this
Brother I’m telling you from experience not coding your battery will cause it you fail catastrophically, no chance of regeneration and at extreme kiss your alternator bye bye
Yes you can definitely go AGM, but if you do you 100% have to code it in, especially if you’re replacing a Lead-Acid (white) battery! AGM has some nice benefits
Y’all, if this video helped you please make sure to give it a like as it helps the channel out 👏🏽 much appreciated
2016 335i GT xdrive is the same? Same size battery, meaning I can use the same you use in the video H8, 1st time changing battery in bmw
Thank you

Haha practice makes perfect! Took me like 3 BMW’s to finally find the secret
Followed this step by step and worked perfect. Was worried about coding but it started up fine
Still make sure you code. It will start fine but you will run into issues overtime unless you do
Code?
@@yfactorgenetics2192 Code/register
@@yfactorgenetics2192bmw batteries have to be coded
Thanks... saved a bit of money picking this battery up at Walmart rather than the auto parts store.
Anytime :)
Thanks again ! Follow your video instruction and I did the battery by myself no problem.
Thank you! Well done!
thank you for showing this video. you are very ceritfile . good explanation
Very comprehensive thank you

Thanks for the information!!! My 335i has been dead for a while. I'm hoping I can follow these instructions and get him running again!
Let me know how it goes! :) I hope this helps

Hmm that is weird. I would check the code and try and reset it! I have not seen that before
@@tunerworld I did still didn’t work, unfortunately I’m gonna have to go get it checked out
@@Keigan-Daviesdid you ever figure It out?

Do a video on all the common n54/ n55 issues to look for when getting a high mileage one and what to do!
That’s a great idea! I will make that video within the next few weeks :)

Thank you for the video dude. So it's just plugged and play with that battery? I don't have to register it or anything?

Nice video, I just did mine but I forgot to to the vent tube is it a big problem?
I would go back in and put it on just incase
would this battery work for a 2008 BMW 328xi
That is actually what this car is in the video haha. 2008 328xi
H6 h7 or h8 battery??
Hi, Can I put a regular wool blanket on my bmw battery in the winter?
I wouldn’t cover the battery!

My battery was completely dead key stuck windows wouldn’t move so I just replaced the battery everything lit up but it won’t start ? I hear the starter trying to work did I do something wrong
Brand new batter? Could be the starter
Did you ever find out what was wrong Ashh Marie?
First thing you have to do is register your battery so the ibs recognizes it n that you changed it or you can disconnect the blue ibs connection it should start if no starter issues
do we need to have backup/3rd party battery during this change?
No you do not!
kinda, disconnecting minee and reconnecting a new caused a overvoltage and blew one of my confort module....common issue, yes it is advise to connect a 3rd party battery voltage while doing this
Brother I’m telling you from experience not coding your battery will cause it you fail catastrophically, no chance of regeneration and at extreme kiss your alternator bye bye
I agree
I think I should do that and not risk a plug n play
I coded the battery
that’s not true I didn’t code my battery and it still ran good and last. And my alternator is fine
Is the h8 platinum AGM good for an 07 335i
Yes you can definitely go AGM, but if you do you 100% have to code it in, especially if you’re replacing a Lead-Acid (white) battery! AGM has some nice benefits
@@tunerworld thank you I highly appreciate it!!
@@sherbert4209 anytime :)
Do you think it would hurt my car to drive on AGM battery without registering it for a few days
Hurt? Probably not tbh but I would try and register it asap!
Hey man will this work on my 2012 328i e92?
Awesome vid btw bro ill be subbing
Hey! It should :)
The 335i and the 328i have the same battery?
@@kodiak7964 yep! E series
Tell Jamie that if you need a battery just ask I'll buy you one karma is best served at a later time
Registration????
Don’t you need to code it?
I did code it at the end!
Why would you change the original BMW battery with a Walmart battery 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Because originallBMW battery is triple the cost and does the same job
This is not good Practice unfortunately. Registration is needed for many reasons. I will be uploading a vid on this soon
I did register the battery..lol you can see me do it at the end of the video
@@tunerworld what scanner did you use? Can I use the obd2 scanner from auto zone?
This is a never start battery shouldn’t use this one👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
Worked amazing for me for years and for a good price. Also has a warranty 💪
Over-engineered cars. A total letdown
Hi, Can u put a regular wool blanket on my bmw battery in the winter?
These BMW batteries in the interior, you should be fine.
