    Maybe it's just me, but when he refilled the coolant without spilling a drop (with no funnel) I knew I was on the right channel.

    I ran across your videos and had to leave a comment best tutorials I have seen so far! you know your sh*T ... I did the valve cover on my Sulev N51 3 stage 2008 328i with the help of your video and saved 1500 dollars from local mechanic ... to those reading this ... go out and invest in tools and work on your own cars ... I used to do all my auto repairs but something about BMW seemed difficult so I never tried ... with the help of Zeiten I was able to gain some confidence and know everything about what I am doing and the NAMES of each part helps to teach and learn ... Thanks again man! you have helped me a lot!

    I just performed this replacement on my wife's 2009 335i convertible. E93/N54. I had to remove all bottom covers to access/2 metal support braces that prevent me dropping the sway bar. Going to have to remove front 2 bolts each side front to swing out of the way.
    Tie a rope to the bottom hose of the coolant reservoir if replacing the thermostat. If you accidentally pull the hose out of it's routing location, you don't want to find out it's routed wrong and too short to connect to reservoir like I did. You also have to loosen/disconnect lower charge pipe/square cooler attached to fan housing to allow fan removal. Excellent video from a BMW master!Thanks!

    Can’t thank you enough for this video! I watched several others but this one’s the best. I rewatched this a few times before doing this on my 328i e90 and everything went smoothly. Only difference was I have the n51 sulev so there was a bit more to remove around the passenger side radiator, but was easy. No more 02E85 code and everything’s still great after a couple weeks driving it!

    I must say best step by step for this job I've seen others that are good and some say you're doing more work than necessary but I say no because you are doing the majority of the job from the top which is perfect for anyone without a lift. Sure if ya got a lift no need to remove the fan or coolant reservoir. Great vid

    one thing not mentioned here for first timers is about reinstallation of the sway bar. if you’re on jack stands and the suspension is not compressed to ride height, you may have to fight the sway bar upon bolting the bushing bracket back onto the frame. either you push very very VERY hard and thread them in carefully, or compress to ride height prior to doing so. won’t have this issue if you’re on ramps obviously.

  • @dpassare1

    Best water pump replacement video. Really nice camera work. I purchased the exact pump and thermostat you suggested. Did the install and bleed and it ran great .....for a day. Now pump isn’t working. Zero RPMs. Did more research and found where people were NOT recommending Pierburg pumps. They short out and have to be replaced. Bummed I got to redo this. Is there another pump you would recommend?

    • @omarpulido8502
      @omarpulido8502 Рік тому

      Pierburg is OEM, it's what all BMWs come with. Perhaps there's a better aftermarket one, but stay away from all the cheap stuff.

  • @czearfoss
    @czearfoss 2 роки тому

    2012 335xi 90k miles- yes, the xdrive makes this more difficult! Ratcheting wrench E12 torx or 10mm is essential for the pump - of course I didn't have one and took 3x as long. Also 10mm ratchet wrench for the heater return line brackets (parallel to the sway bar) would have helped. And another helpful is 6mm ratchet wrench for the hose clamps.
    Also I got the thermostat/pump kit from fcpeuro and an observation is that there are now rubber isolator grommets for mounting the pump! So when bolts are tight the pump can move a little. The existing pump did not have this, and it was a continental (VDO) also, probably original (I got the car 10 months ago).
    Regarding process, after removing the pump bolts, pull it out a bit, then unbolt the thermostat from the pump, then you can better access the clamp to the main hose. Remove that, then you can remove everthing thermostat still connected to pump via hose. Then when installing, install the thermostat to pump hose on the pump only, put the pump in the cavity and connect the main hose. Then you can put the thermostat in place and attach the thermostat to pump hose. Don't bolt it to the thermostat until you get various hoses connected. Remember to leave those 2 frontmost hoses off until you bolt in the pump.
    Final comment - when removing the wire connector to the thermostat I had to use screwdriver and needlenose to effectively break apart the recepticle part on the thermostat - it was crudded up pretty bad.

    Hey, first off thank you very much for this video, helped me throughout the whole process. I did everything exactly how you said, but I have x-drive so a little bit more challenging. However, the pump test failed. No coolant was jetting into the reservoir. Any ideas what else could be the issue? I did the test before and saw nothing so I figured has to be the pump, please any help greatly appreciated.

      There is a fuse that can be burnt, but it’s easy to miss a step so here it goes just for you:
      1. Ignition on
      2. Heater to max heat
      3. Step on gas pedal for about 10 sec
      Don’t close the door

    Great video? I will be watching it again when I go to replace my water pump and thermostat. What if coolant other than the blue coolant was used? Is it ok to just fill up with the blue coolant after any other coolant was drained? Also, what are the torque specs on the aluminum bolts holding the water pump to the block and the sway bar if I have to remove it?

    How many hours of labour did it take you to R&R the water pump & thermostat when you did it yourself? (Just trying to make sure my mechanic doesn't charge me a whole day or something crazy like that). I'm guessing about 2 hours or so?

My car has barely 70K miles but it gives me one problem after another...😂🤣😂. BMW, the ultimate driving machine as they call it. Buyer beware!!! Consider this your warning!!! Learn how to fix your own car. If not, you will have to pay to drive a BMW especially when it’s out of warranty and don’t know how to diagnose and fix it yourself. My recommendation is subscribe to Zeiten here. He will save you lots of money if you can just do some of the work yourself with your BMW.

      Yes. It means you need a new thermostat , did you bleed the system properly ? Using the key in ignition on position hold accelerate or for 10 secs then let the car instruct the pump
      To auto lees for you , There is a heater inside it which causes the thermostat to open much faster and earlier than it would if it were to wait for coolant heat to expand the wax pellet. The element in your thermostat has burned out.
      Under certain circumstances the engine computer wants to get the coolant circulating through the rad as fast as possible. You won't have that function until you change the 'stat.

      @@Zeiten Still no water flow, heat on, turned up to 84, lowest fan setting on. Power on without starting, accelerator down for 10 seconds plus. I bought the pump on Amazon, it had good reviews. This was the "AIP Electronics Complete New Electric Engine Water Pump Thermostat Kit". What is really odd though is that the old water pump had likely not worked for many months but no warning ever came up on my dash and the car never went into limp mode. It also never showed up on my phone, using the FIXD app. It eventually blew out the seams of the coolant overflow tank from the pressure. I'm in a bad way since I paid for labor only, and when I picked up the car they lied to me and said they checked the water pump and it was pumping water.

    • @Zeiten

      @blockchaineducationmanager5808 first mistake getting any parts on amazon, whatever you got is garbage no matter the reviews, aftermarket pumps don’t last long or i’ve seen those don’t work from the start, pierburg is the right pump (vdo/continental later midels). Don’t blame techs may be it was working for a second but that’s what you get for trying to save a few dollars and getting strange parts. Second, water pump complete failure would definitely show up in dme dtc, expansion tank can crack and blow on its own doesn’t mean your water pump failed
