For anyone following this - do not remove that rubber seal. That should have come with a health warning - it is impossible to get it back in. You don’t need to remove anything inside the car - just lubricate the lower universal joint in the engine bay. You can also lubricate the upper from there too.

Google ‘bmw steering shaft sleeve’ and / or look up the part on realoem to get an idea of what it looks like. Part similar across all models 32306791293. It’s one piece, plastic and rubber - you should not separate it. On a RHD m135i at least, you can reach the plastic clips that hold it, and release one by one. In the engine bay near the exhaust - you will need skinny arms. Once released, back in the cabin you can now place/seat the rubber seal back around the plastic, and then reinsert through the bulkhead, re-engaging rhe clips. It will now sit tight.

Is white grease okay for the rubber? Did you use white lithium grease?

Given it has been 3 years since this vid was made, I'd be more than interested to hear how you got on by attaching a regular trickle charger to a Lithium Ion battery. My understanding is that it should not be done with a Lithium battery. I swear by Optimate and own 6 of them for my cars and bikes BUT they all use lead acid batteries. Please tell me if there's some sort of info you know about contrary to the many experts I've seen who say lithium does not respond well to trickle chargers - dangerous even. is yours a special lithium model charger - did I miss that? - or is it a regular Optimate designed for lead acid?

I’m riding a turbo levo comp alloy 2023 , 700wh battery and find with the right motor settings can get really good range. Eco 15/100 Trail 35/100 Turbo 100/100 I’m a double below knee amputee I weigh about 115 kg 47 years old I did a not so accurate range test , but it did show what’s achievable on this bike . I have a loop that I do that is about 12 mile with 1500 ft climbing , I average about 15% battery usage per ride . Riding the loop consecutively, without charging the battery each day I managed 5 loops , with 19% remaining. But was not brave enough to do a 6th 😂 So a theoretical range of 70 miles , never in turbo , but bursts of trail . Using the micro tune on the same ride I’ve managed to get 12 % usage on the same route, but had to work hard throughout

Thank you Very Much! I was installing the Kriega and then I saw only 2 straps underneath. Went to BMW because I thought the one on the front underneath the seat was lost. Nope, indeed it’s standard OEM. This is a perfect solution without making things permanent. Going to the Black Forest beginning of August. 👍🏾

I have had the same bike, and used a US20, since 2018. I use the two fitted straps on the seat, and found (with some fiddling) to attach two straps to the frame close to where the seat hooks in. It means I have the four loops - two being the OEM loops on the pillion seat and the other two being the Kreiger straps - no need to open the seat. Bike is in getting a it’s 60000km service (they sorted the hot start issue!) but will get a photo to show how I did it.

Thanks for the video! Shame you had to go through such trouble though. After watching your video, I decided I shell avoid such anguish. I looked very carefully for alternatives. It turns out, that, if you look up from below, you discover that the battery box has a very convenient slot in it, just above the terminals. Very easy to slide the wires from the top without cutting anything. The problem is, you'll never see it, unless you get down there and look up;) Cheers
