BMW X3's air filter is located in a special position, inside the grid cover under the wipers. Below are the steps to remove the BMW X3 air filter: 1. Open the engine compartment cover. First, remove the two sealing strips to prevent them from hindering the removal process later. Then prepare to open the first layer of the cover by pulling the clip at the bottom left corner, and the first layer of the cover can be removed. 2. Next, disconnect the wiring harness. Hold the wire and the clip, and pull them out from the round hole on the right side. Pay special attention here: when pulling out the wiring harness, make sure to pull out both the clip and the wiring harness together, and never pull out only the wiring harness. 3. After completing steps 1 and 2, what remains is the grid-shaped plastic cover. Gently pull the clip upwards, then lift the entire plastic cover upwards to remove the grid cover. 4. When removing the air filter, hold the four clips to take out the filter and the plastic box together, and then you can remove the second layer of the filter.
