BMW N63 Turbo Coolant Lines DIY
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2024
- Hello Everyone! Todays video will be all too familiar for many OG N63 and N63tu owners such as myself... we're tackling the leaky turbo coolant lines! Its a fairly straightforward process so long as you have the right lines (with new t-flanges) on hand, about 12 appropriately sized clamps of your choosing, coolant, the tools to remove and install clamps, a few other basic tools, and some strong patient hands. The most difficult part of the DIY would be getting to the aux water pump connection for the main drain line (bank 1 side) which requires the removal of the intercooler coolant reservoir.
Thanks for watching!

Thank You. Only visible leak is on the 2nd coolant line (around 17 minute mark of your video) I’ll start with that and see how it goes. BMW wanted $3500 to replace all coolant lines.
Thank you and hope the job goes smoothly for you!
@@dariusGarage thanks!! Do you recall if part # URO 11537578687PRM came with the cinch crimps or did you buy them separately? They look like 1/2 inch cinch crimps
@@Thomasz126it comes exactly as pictured on the website. I unpackaged that part at around the 18 minute mark, it does come pre clamped and I had to unclamp it.
You got a part number for that part I like that metal T fitting
It came with a URO hose kit from Rockauto. Part number 11537577014PRM
Good DIY. Do you have a parts list of the items you used?
Thank you! These are the parts you can use for this DIY, you can buy them off Rockauto for a fairly affordable price. One of the parts URO doesn’t make/isn’t stocked by Rockauto so unfortunately a Rein alternative is listed.
URO 11537578687PRM
URO 11537577014PRM
URO 11537577013
REIN CHT0684
@@dariusGaragewhats the link?
@@BriceGibson unfortunately RockAuto won’t let you link parts or your cart. Just copy paste the part numbers I provided in the search box.
Take the TOWELS away for better visual of routing !!!!!
I mean I was looking for a particular position and the towel was in the way ....... !
Well thank you for the feedback. Its hard to film and do the job cleanly on your own when under a time constraint! I'm sure there will be an opportunity for me to redo this video one day and make it better.
How did you purge the system ?
@@Kzimkaz self purge, fill coolant to the top, install cap. Start the car and get it up to operating temperature, let it cool off, then top up again. It should be good to go from that point according to BMW manual but I had to repeat the process once or twice after that.
Hey, what application you using on your phone that showing you particular system components? Thanks
At that time I found a forum post on the subject and took a screenshot of that…However, the picture was actually from a BMW official document called a “Technical Training” on the N63TU specifically. You can download/read it here

@@dariusGarage Thanks! Do you have anything S63TU related?
nevermind.. I found it :) the same way as yours
How long did that take you do
The first attempt took half a day, the second attempt when I did it nicely was part of a week long intercooler upgrade. I would budget two days if possible in order to do a quality diy job
