BMW Repair: 2003 BMW 530I Brake Fluid Reservoir, brake fluid reservoir, 2003 bmw 530i


Question
I have a 2003 BMW 530I (Sports Package) and the Brake Fluid Sensor has come on. Where is the Brake Fluid Reservoir under the hood?  Thanks.

Answer
Majid, the drivers rear area of the engine compartment houses one of the microfilter housings. Lift the metal bale and remove the lid. Remove the Microfilter. Disconnect the connector for the hood switch. On the side of the microfilter lift the top clips for the air duct that goes back to the firewall. Once released from the microfilter housing turn the duct counter clockwise. Squeeze the metal clip by the hood switch and remove microfilter housing. You will see the brake fluid reservoir underneath. Please purchase a shop manual for your car or review the owners manual.
