    Welcome to the BMW Maintenance Series where you are going to learn how to maintain your BMW yourself and save a bunch of money in the process. In this video, I show you how easy it is to flush the coolant / antifreeze fluid on your BMW E90 but this will be a very similar process on my 3 series cars. You want to first check to see if the coolant fluid is clear and doesn't have any oil or smell burnt. You should replace your coolant every 2 years or so.

      You sure? I thought the chemical components of the coolant was special because of the reaction with the magnesium alloy of the block of the green coolant was bad for the block.

    are you sure you run the venting process with the bleed screrw and cap tight?

    • @buildanddrive
      @buildanddrive  10 месяцев назад +7

      i did it the wrong way. run the venting process with the screw CLOSED and the cap open until you dont see anymore air coming through, then try to get the right amount of coolant in the expansion tank and close it so it can pressurize and run throughout the rest of the engine.

    Just draining the radiator will actually drain a pretty small amount of the total coolant in the system….the radiator doesn’t hold that much in comparison. You need to do both the radiator and main coolant hoses to water pump to meaningfully do a ‘coolant swap’.

    • @buildanddrive
      @buildanddrive  Месяц назад

      Yes, if you tilt the car forward a bit, it should drain a lot of the coolant out.

      @@aliasSix In europe, I've only found 2 brands of BMW coolant that say they support the N52 engine (magnesium alloy block) so you cant just use any coolant because it can have a chemical reaction of its not compatible. For other engines, very possible you can just put any coolant into it.

    Can I just fill the coolant without water

      No, the coolant is an anti corrosion liquid, the water helps with the cooling. You need water.
