    Thank you very much you are the best person that I've been watching on RUclips because I was having problems trying to figure out my E34 1991 525i was overheating and just by watching the things you did help me a whole lot I squeeze the holes for a long time cuz I'm not running any termist at and I noticed that the car is holding at low temperature now I haven't drove it yet because I'm going to do it tomorrow again to see and make sure all the air is out I just changed my reservoir tank

    Hello Repair Fanatic would like to Thank You for your video..once again you heiped me repair my 1997 528i.
    I had replaced the CCV and intake manifold gaskets by mistake i removed wrong hose that let air in the system. My car over heated so i jacked my front end and followed your video. I did not think that it would work but it did. Thank you again

    You legend - thank you, i have a jaguar, had my water pump changed by a complete dick of a mechanic who boasted afterwards when handing the car back 'I didnt even need to change or drain the coolant, just put the new one in' complete tool... Told him I didnt think that was right but he insisted it was. since then my car coolant level and temp has been everywhere. Thanks again mate

    Chase morris do a cylinder leakage test if its good. You might have bad radiator, water pump, or fan clutch(if overheats in idle only).
    I worked on a 96 3 series the dealer changed 2 fan clutches
    we took the radiator out and the lower radiator hose was higher than the lowest part of the radiator split the radiator it was clogged below the outlet.

    I don't have the plastic thermostat housing mine is aluminum n no matter how hard I try I can't get the screw loose where the top radiator hose is connected. I also broke my radiator cap bought a new one n now its seeping coolant from under the cap. What should I do now. Cap doesn't seem to fit right n the bleeder screw at top of coolant tank won't get tight. Look like it's stripped in their n car overheating too

    1 Question , i have an E39 525 TDS , i changed the whole motor , water pump ,etc . But the mechanic put in WATER, i think its distilated tough .. but i see it a lil muddy, and every time i get out of my car , its like , or is just my impression, to much heat coming from underneat the motor , or the motor itself, ... But it never gets passed MID temperature. I want to bleed out the water and put some good coolant, do you recomend to do it a couple of times with water first to get rid of some muddy ugly water ? P.S , i live in SPAIN , here is no SNOW , or 0º C .. never below 0.. So its preatty hot every day.

    @bigplanner On the middle of your dashboard Air vents. is the nozzle turn up to red or the nozzle turn down to blue. That could prevent your hot air from blowing in your car. Air bubbles will cause your car to heat up a little above normal. causing problems to your climate control unit. Like not working properly.

  • @bigplanner
    @bigplanner 11 лет назад +1

    Do you know if air bubbles in my radiator can be the reason my heat isn't working? Even when I put it on full blast the fan doesn't even blow.

  • @BeamerFanaticsE39E90
    @BeamerFanaticsE39E90  11 лет назад

    @bigplanner I had the same problem Sometimes my heater will not work. it will work randomly before by me fixing my Cooling system. I solve my AC and heater problem. And replace my climate control unit.TIP: Turn your car on then turn on your heater for five minutes. Then turn off your car Without turning down the heater. Then turn your car back on to see If your car starts blowing out hot air. For some reason that works for me before I fixed my Cooling system.

  • @Gr8mate13

  • @criticaboutvids
    @criticaboutvids 10 лет назад +5

    Your thermostat is broken. It's a valve that opens and closes your coolant lines depending on the temperature of your coolant, but since yours is stuck closed, your engine over heats.

    • @wantedghost588
      @wantedghost588 2 года назад

      Yes and no when adding coolant you may fill it incorrectly and get air into your system if your thermostat goes bad and you open your tank and don't see coolant you have air In your system

    so do you do this while the car is running with the heater on?
    Or do you heat the car up till operating temp turn it off loosen the bleeder screw so you can then open the resevoir cap and then start the process?

    • @231mac

      One bleeder screw is sufficient. Have you done recent cooling system work on the car? If so, sounds like you have an air pocket in the system.

    Hi I have a 2001 525i and she just started over heating, the expansion tank was replaced and just today i tried to replace some coolant and drove about a mile and on the way back it started over heating. When I managed to get it back parked, coolant/steam started escaping from the expansion tank cap. not the bleeder screw. could it be over heating due to air? And why is it leaking from the cap? Please help.

    • @BeamerFanaticsE39E90
      @BeamerFanaticsE39E90  9 лет назад +1

      You have air bubble that need to be removed.
      Your engine is building up steam pressure causing fluid to exit your expansion tank.
      When you have air bubbles it will build up steam pressure causing the expansion tank to explode.

  • @topsecret5
    @topsecret5 10 лет назад

    it could also be those damn plastic impellers the factory water pump comes with, hence why there is no flow of coolant through the radiator. OR the system it's blocked or clogged, Mixing coolant types it's a big no no.

    I'm no expert, but most of the BMW experts say that you should only use the red BMW type coolant in these cars. BMW will not cover any warranty claims with green fluid in their cars that result in damage. When you have a $50K car, why not put $20 BMW coolant in, instead of the $10 stuff?
