BMW Repair: BMW 525i car battery location, bmw 525i, 1995 bmw 525i

Question
Hello: can you pls tell me where the battery is located for a 1995 BMW 525i touring sedan? Also, how can I go about changing it and which battery would you recommend?


Answer
battery is located under the rear seat. grab the corner and lift up. Factory battery is expensive. Interstate is a good battery. You want to be sure that the battery will fit correctly. A lot of batteries say they are a direct replacement, but you need to use spacers and adapters. when you disconnect battery, disconnect negative terminal 1st and be sure not to touch negative and positve together as you'll get a shower of sparks and could cause the battery to explode. make sure you have the radio code. You'll need to enter the radio code for the radio to work as well as set time/date
