Hi Emma, changing brake pads on a BWM 3 Series is actually quite simple! First, you'll need to lift your car off the ground using a jack and place it on jack stands for safety. Then, remove the wheel and loosen the caliper bolts. Carefully remove the caliper and old brake pads, and then use a C-clamp to compress the caliper piston. Install the new brake pads and reassemble everything. Don't forget to pump the brake pedal a few times before driving to ensure the caliper is fully engaged.
