[@Antonis_Skondras]

6:01 what is this ? The white ointment / gel?

[@HaynesManuals]

It's called 'water pump assembly grease'

[@gianniverona]

Interesting video. Where I can find the tool you use to remove the clips from hoses or do you have a link where I can buy it?

[@HaynesManuals]

Search eBay for 'Car Flexible Long Reach Water Hose Clip Pliers Spring Clamp Plier Radiator Tool'

[@bakial2030]

hello, do you need to do the bleeding process when the engine is hot again? Or is it enough for us to fill the container like this and get it right away? thanks advance.

[@HaynesManuals]

The video shows the procedure described by Renault. I would think it wise to check the coolant level in the expansion tank when the engine has cooled down after the first few journeys.
