What was your reason for looking at this video? I’ve got a f10 520d touring I’m new to her had the E61 before so I’m getting my bearings with the new car. Noticed a slight squeak from steering from cold, so I’m working through the checklist. Just interested to get your thoughts.
idk what is wrong wiht my servo system. after the car gets warm my steering wheel feels for a really short period of time harder while turning.. but this just hapens when the engine is at 90 degree... i already changed the servopump cuz i lost there Servo fluid-- and my problem still isnt solved im sad
Hello! I have 2 indicators on the stick : - 20°C (68°F) - 80°C (176°F) How can I make sure to put the right amount of oil ? Should I fill up beteween the two ? Thanks!
Why is the acceptable level such a big secret!? No mention here and damned if BMW sees fit to list in the manual. That had to be on purpose. All the dip stick says is 80 and 20C. That's about as worthless as tits on a bull.
Well, the fluid expands with temperature. Therefore, the bar labeled 20°C is where the level should be at when the fluid is cold and the one labeled 80°C is where it should be when it's hot. It's not THAT complicated, is it? :-)
@@tommasopasserindentreves9345 that is what I thought it meant, but I always will verify my assumptions especially since I have an issue with the rack and it above the the 80 degree line all the time. I'd be damned if any of the manuals mention this tho. It's not even readily found on the web.
Thats exactly how not to do it. Why mix old and new fluid and create a mess? You don't put new tea into old tea? You wash the cup and drain old tea in the sink.... That must be an American way of doing things.
thx Francesco, u saved me loads of time with your videos. 🥰👍

The best choice, FUCHS... Good work.. Franscesco... Thank u...
Thanks Man! :-)
Fantastic work as usual, good job!
Thanks Man! :-)
I do that couple times in year. It's so easy to do...
Your videos are really helpful, thanks 👍
No vacuum?
Is this a petrol car? I got a 520d from 2013 and dont see that fluid tank under the hood
Wow your car looks like new, no need to change anything jet. Power steering fluid normally lasts about 10 jears or 100.000 km.
Is it possible to get a steering malfunction if fluid level is barely on the dip stick?
Is the motor on while draining the fluid or must it be off?
Fill it up 20 c or 80 c on a car that is cold or sitting over night

doesn't f10 have the electronic steering?
Only the RWD Models from the F10/F11 5 Series have an electronic steering.
@@manuelschneider3112 I think M5 has hydraulic too.
electric steering was an option (also allows for a real lane assist, not just the vibration motors) but hydraulic is standard on F10/F11
Great and simple Video as always! Did you feel any difference after the oilchange?
I wonder that too!
nice job bro :-)

@Ta Ha Hello
You have to fill up to 20°C when the engin is cold
@___taha44 I have that same question?
I wonder why some F10 has electrical steering and others have hydraulic
Because of packaging inside the engine chamber. For example 3.0d is much larger than 2.0d and there is not enough space for EPS.
X drive have hydraulic steering
@@Sonin66 thank you, now it figures, I saw some f10 with xdrive and this
@@wojtekplonka9668 I have a 530d F11 rear wheel drive (not xdrive) and it has hydraulics, it has adaptive drive, I don't know if it can influence it.
Hey man my power steering cap won’t open and when I use the torque wrench with the 17mm it won’t open what do you think I should do?
Turn it the other way.

It would've cost you literally nothing to not use that music, but thanks for the tut anyway
Hit the mute button Bitch.
It would cost you literally nothing to press the mute button.
Brilliant 😂 @@josephPresto
Total Capacity is around 3000 ml.. more than 1000 ml is only in tank and what about pipes and steering rack and dynamic bars ?
Your just removing the old fluid from the tank your not actually flushing the system , the pump & lines!
