BMW 3 SERIES REAR BUMPER AND SENSOR REMOVAL

Download Free BMW 3 Series Rear Bumper and Sensor Removal.pdf It’s often recommended that the negative lead of the battery be removed before working on any electrical components. Remember to note fuel consumption and average speed data if you want to keep it as this data is volatile and will be lost when the battery is disconnected.

The rear bumper if fixed by two large Torx 50 bolts and two studs. The left hand bolt and stud positions are shown by red arrows in picture 1. The bolts are reached from beneath the bumper, there is a cut out on the leading edge of the bumper beneath each bolt. The trick, having removed those bolts and studs, is getting the bumper to slide back. And be warned, when it does slide back it does so suddenly and drops off the back of the car, but  don’t worry, it won’t hit the ground. It’s fall will be abruptly halted by the cables to the parking sensors. NOT what you want. Either have a helper or position something to prevent the bumper falling off. It may be possible to remove the bumper without removing other pieces of trim but I believe it will be easier if these are removed. See pictures 2 through 5.
