Thank you! I'm glad to hear my video was helpful to you.

Thank you man! I appreciate it

That's a great idea, and thank you for your generous offer!

Awesome car!! Cherish that beauty! I’m glad you enjoyed the video - happy motoring.

I’m considering buying the exact same one. How’s the maintenance going? Is it smart to buy it when I’m in college? I’ll be doing diy strictly

Thanks man!

Good idea! Thanks!

Where can you buy one at??

@@tirrell2267 google what you want to buy, and it comes up

I’m about to go do this... can I have it connected to my second car battery while doing this ? Thanks

It just happen to me today had to replace the batter

Thank you!

Thanks brotha! Hell yeah hahaha N52 is a beast.

Yes... that jack really wasn't too safe. I have since upgraded to a two post lift. I recommend flushing, but if you're in a hurry then don't worry about it.

@@JDCarsChannel It looked great to me! What kind of scissor jacks were those? I'm looking for an easy way to lift an E93 from the differential without cracking the housing... to get it on jack stands.

Thank you!

Thanks for watching!

Glad you found the video helpful!

Thank you! My brakes are pretty strong right now...but when the pads go I will make a video for sure

Glad to help!

Will do!

what is that entertainment unit you have there ?

Thanks man!

Glad to help!

That would depend on your climate, but you should be fine with what you described. If it is cold in your climate use a little more antifreeze, but if it is warm a little more water is ok.

Glad it was helpful! Make sure you've thoroughly bled air from the system. It sounds like you still have some air which is causing the engine to get hot

Thanks!

JD Cars u should give them to me as a gift, lol

soniccash1up hahaha good one

That's very strange... I don't know how that could be related to the coolant flush.

Glad to help!

Maybe... I'm not sure because BMW claims they are lifetime fluids, but they should probably be changed.

You should be able to just top it off for now

Correct! You got it!

You may have to remove a skid plate, but in this case I didn't have to remove one

Glad to help!

I miss that car a lot

I recommend both draining points because the radiator only holds about half of the coolant.

Glad to help!

TGSN _ do it. Better now than later

Yup I would recommend doing it

Correct. For these newer cars with electronic water pumps, you don't need to start the engine. Just follow the bleed procedure with the ignition button, gas pedal, and climate control.

Hahahaha

If your coolant system is really dirty you just run it with water to flush and repeat the process, then bleed with coolant. Yes- the main coolant hose.

The capacity may be 10.5L, but during this change you are unable to completely purge the system of fluid without pressurizing it with air.

It is electronically stored.

Thanks ✌️

You can top it off for the time being, but it sounds like you should check out your lines and radiator - also consider doing a flush.

@@JDCarsChannel i took it to a shop and they flushed and refilled 1.5L of coolant with remaining distilled water. The level was at max but after driving 200 kms now level is min. Also i got a code 2E83 which is related to electric coolant pump. Do you think my pump is bad or i just need to top it up again? Thanks!

The jack was a custom jack we made, but no longer recommend. The stereo is an Eonon-- we have a couple videos about it!

Possibly!

Hahahah

They will always recommend their products, but there are other products which are verified for use with BMWs.

I no longer recommend using that style jack

Those are my headlight cooling fans!

No! Many people say you need to, but only if you really think you'll need it. Ex: if your hoses are very old and at risk of cracking. Otherwise, I recommend holding off until you need it, and you can find locally at NAPA or other stores.

I usually leave it a bit loose

Good tips!

Thanks ! Wasn't meant to be a know-it-all (not even sure what I stated is 100% complete or accurate), but I was just myself in a big Inspection II DIY and just read a lot of forum posts on flushing so thought to share :-)

So you have to close bleed screw and cap open?

@@zoggles89 Am no expert, but I would say yes, then run idle with heater on till engine is warm and thermostat opens up (so all cooling channels are activated), stop engine, use bleed screws to let air out, top up the reservoir. Only thing I'm not sure about anymore (it's been a while) is whether the fluid level can change when it gets hot (like expanding a bit) which needs to be taken into account. The actual measurement (making sure the fluid is between the marks) is done with cold fluid (or at least not super hot).

Rombbb there’s no temp gauge on the E90, I’m guessing the pump running without the engine for 12 minutes should send air all the way to the bleed screw

@@robbieshaft should the bleed screw left open when bleeding? The reason I asked is because, in the video the bleeder screw is closed tight

@@moopow3 yes most definitely have the screw opened as the system is sealed otherwise and the air will just keep recirculating

Correct

JD Cars thank you my friend good video and good explanation

I believe it is a similar process

I'm not entirely sure, but you are correct. There is still some fluid in the system.

There's a drain plug on the side of the block, but you only need to open that if your coolant is really old and in desperate need of a flush.

JD Cars any idea how much is left in system? half gallon? I emptied from the plug, but i didn’t bother with the hose. I added a full bottle of coolant and about half a gallon of water. I’m assuming that’s fine??

I simply could not find BMW oem coolant locally...

Most important is that the coolant is BMW approved

Tee Rich yea get a new reservoir with a float stick

Thank you! I wrapped the trim with carbon fiber vinyl!

Yup haha

Ia there a difference when changing auto and manual e90 coolant flushes or are they the same?

Thank you

Yes, the procedure should be the same

No, but over-tightening the bleeder cap can cause cracks and leaking.

This will cause a leak! you need the bleeding cap on!

@BLAZE45

Replace your coolant tank, the cooling system is supposed to be a sealed circuit, if air gets in it could cause an air lock too

The car has a electric water pump

I couldn't tell you... just be sure to measure carefully.

Got it on amazon!

@Explore Flight Simulator nicee hope it goes well

think it was just for the video, but the extra room helps when putting the underhood back on

Right near the oil drain bolt door.

If the fluid is dark murky color then it needs replacing.

Usually yes

That's a custom made jack... I created a video on how to build it.

JD Cars thx

Hahahah thanks bro

JD Cars is great!

Michael Patrick Moore it’s true I called the dealer where my car had its maintenance and they couldn’t print service records unless the old owner came with me, they only told me what was done

A custom made jack that we can no longer endorse

Unfortunately these headlights were discontinued :(

@@JDCarsChannel Appreciate the update!

Its called BMW Anti-freeze. I purchased it from the bmw workshop directly at the MRP price!

G48 spec does not have to be labeled bmw. Zerex makes it maybe others just a make sure G48 spec

It's a 30" high lift scissor jack

That's a game changer! Where did you get it from?

Matt Crosby same stuff

That’s why u just look for coolants that are compatible, they make green coolants that are free from the damaging chemicals

BMW blue coolant is G-48.

It has 180k

The bleeder screw

Daniel A 🙄🙄🙄

Cap closing bleeder screw closing. How is air come out?
