Glad it helped!

It's in there now. It's 64219178427

The clamp on the radiator end is a disposable type clamp, you'll need to buy some new clamps if you cut em off

To remove the factory style clamps, stick a small screwdriver inside twist of the left and then to the right. That will open up the crimp end and then you can easily slide your screwdriver underneath the side and pry up the trailing edge. Pick up a small worm clamp for $1 and replace.

Not sure what O rings you are talking about. Dorman part number is 627-002

I MEAN ARE THERE ORINGS AT EACH END INSIDE THE HOSE ENDS??? ALSO THE DORMAN PART WILL FIT IF U CUT HOSE? THANKS GREAT VIDEO..STILL NOT SURE HOW U GOT IT OFF>>TIGHT SPACE>

@gail6904 honestly I didn't look inside the fitting, I don't think it had internal O rings but if it does then it's good because I haven't had issues. And if you buy the Dorman one you'll have to cut the clamp and reclamp to the new fitting

okay thank u soo much for your help..looks like the Dorman part will fit perfect cuz i have No idea how you can get that back hose on firewall off...Amen yes the Dorman comes with ORINGS AND the hose is suppose to have 2 orings great video and ty so much!!

do u know if that Dorman part fits a 2008 328i sedan on the upper rad hose??? I know u have to cut and remove old clamp..thanks @@datboifixit1995

Dorman part number 627-002

@@datboifixit1995 I was looking at that one and it was saying compatible with Audi and Volkswagen. I didn’t see it mention BMW on it. Did you have a reference on someone else using this and it working? It looks pretty similar to it, but I just wanted to double check before I order it

@saltysalt397 I saw a video where someone used it on a Z3 I believe with the same engine, I think it was an N51

@@saltysalt397 and someone in this thread said that part worked for them

I’ve gotcha, I’ll go ahead and order it and if it works. Thanks man

Not really, once I got the clip off I was able to wiggle it off, try twisting is from side to side while pulling away.

@@datboifixit1995 I was doing that for a while, but it was not working. My 325i has 193,000 though so that certainly doesn’t help. Especially if this is the first time it has been changed. I wrapped a rope around it and shook it from side to side for anyone who may see this comment in the future looking for a fix to get that stubborn hose off.

@ThePublicAccess my 328 has 193k miles also but it was as bad

@@datboifixit1995 I’m in the mid west and usually have cooling issues with the car so my gasket was probably just super expanded

@@ThePublicAccess yo, this is actually a pretty wise trick to do. After just replacing my coolant hoses, I can attest that I never thought of that and that would've actually worked so much better for even pulling and not risking prying against the plastic flanges, especially on the upper radiator hose.

The one I saw in another video was 627-002, but online it says that part is Audi/VW only but I've seen someone use it for bmw. It looks like the right part it's just hard to say.

No, some will come out but just top it off after and bleed but no need to drain

Dorman sells a part, part # 627-002

Possible - yes, a good idea - not so much.

64219178427 Its OEM BMW
