    okay folks, for the ones who are contemplating doing this. It's not as easy as the video shows. Reserve at least 6 hours if you haven't worked on this before. There will be a lot of pain and frustration with removing and installing the radiator fan which is 80% of the job. If you have the budget, I recommend having someone else suffer through it. However, if you're as stubborn as I was, you can do it just be patient and take a break if you're stuck. This job will make you question a lot of your life decisions.

      If you go from the bottom remove the charge pipe and the thermostat is literally in arms reach, hit the clip on the Tstat from the top with an angle pick get you a long flat head and use the to tstat to water pump hose that you should be replacing anyway and pry it from the top or bottom. And that’s all she wrote.

    great video. what was your observation for the optimum operating temp for the engine oil? coolant? and transmission oil? I could see mine 100 C for engine oil and 90 C for engine temp and coolant 90 C? Transmission oil 85 C. not sure if this are normal.

    Is it ok to bleed with the expansion screw off like you did or is it supposed to be closed? Is it’s closed where would the air go?

    • @InlineSixAuto
      @InlineSixAuto  2 роки тому +1

      From my understanding, the air is bled out through the expansion tank as it squirts into the tank, trapped air is being released. So I'm honestly not sure if the bleeder screw being open or closed makes any significant difference. Could be wrong though since I'm not an expert. Though I haven't had any issues with the cooling system since doing this replacement

    My 435 just threw a CEL light w the code U1408, secondary P0128 but has the same symptoms as you. Oil gauge doesn’t move from cold but runs fine.
    You had different codes?
    Has replacing the thermostat fixed the issue?

    • @InlineSixAuto
      @InlineSixAuto  Рік тому

      Yes my issues went away after doing this replacement. But the same symptoms came back about 3 months later, I had noticed my coolant level was super low again and then I took it to a shop and they pointed out that there was a lot of coolant leaking from the coolant hose 'mickey mouse' clamp/piece that connects into the front of the engine block. I had replaced this piece the year before since the plastic piece broke so I got an aluminum one, however the gasket failed just after a year which is why it was leaking. So I ended up replacing it again with a different aluminum piece. Haven't had any issues since. That was back in May a few months ago. It seemed like these symptoms would only happen whenever the coolant level was super low below the minimum line. So it may not have even been my thermostat thinking back on it. Like when the coolant level is too low it creates a code reaction, keeping the thermostat open and turning off the oil temp gauge. Not certain that this is how it works but it just seemed like this what was happening for some reason. You said you had different codes so not sure if you have a similar issue but this what happened with mine. Yours may just be a bad sensor from what I've read.

    • @InlineSixAuto
      @InlineSixAuto  Рік тому

      Depends on the milage of the car. If your car has higher milage and 1 fails. might as well just do both. Mine only has 75k miles so I decided to just do the thermostat since I felt it was too early and I wasn't having any issues with the waterpump.

You forgot to mention or maybe I didn’t notice, but the transmission cooler apart from being bolted onto the fan by the t25 it’s also slotted into a groove in the fan so you can’t pull the fan out before lifting up and pushing the transmission cooler out from the slot it’s sitting in on the fan.
