    Great Channel enjoy the Vids but just as an FYi…. Since 2020 BMW went to HT-12 Coolant (Fluorescent Green Color) in both the High Temp and Low Temp Cooling systems, this Coolant can be used in Older BMWs but Old BMW coolant (Blue Color) ….cannot be mixed with Green and or Newer BMWs….” “.

    • @JamiesGarage1
      @JamiesGarage1  20 днів тому +4

      Yep. You’re right. We ended up flushing the system with the correct fluid. The brownish coolant was obviously bad. The green was likely factory but we didn’t know for sure knowing the “quality” of products the previous place used. 👍

    BMW switched to green coolant in 2018…..And if I’m not mistaken that looks like a G series front end so the green coolant is correct….also I can tell by the cap that it’s a B48 engine which does take green HT-12.

    I'm somewhat of a purist for parts and have been wrenching my own Mercedes for 35 years. I recently put Powerstop on my 2015 S550 (W222) because Akebono does not make them for this car. They are the best brake pads I've ever used and SUPER LOW dust. Lot's of opportunity for heat soaking here in the desert, but they just keep performing after repeated stops.

    Thanks for the tutorial, the fact that your customer agreed to, first, approve diag time to check out the wiring and, second, to approve the harness replacement is just crazy. I don't think people realize how much work can go into removing all those panels and dealing with an inoperable BMW folding hardtop. Awesome work and thanks for sharing the good content.

    nothing is more expensive than taking your BMW to a non-BMW repair shop!!! EX random shop: "your BMW n52 has oil in the coolant the engine is dead you need a new one" BMW shop: "you have oil in the coolant on your N52. you need a new o ring on the oil cooler and flush the system. replace bad hoses"

    Hey Jamie, great video! Just one small observation. The 2020 g20 BMW comes with HT-12 coolanr from the factory, which is green colored.
    BMW switched to HT 12 somewhere around 2019.
    Kudos ✌️

    I've got low dust pads that are standard on my Jaguar XE. Don't know who the OEM is though. But they really keep the wheels clean. 😉

    I have a set of Powerstop Z23 pads on my wife’s B9 S5 and they are a huge improvement and almost dustless. We noticed the pads are slightly less grabby than the stock pads but that makes them a little smoother in operation

    i thought the new BMW formula is green?? HT - 12

    • @JamiesGarage1
      @JamiesGarage1  20 днів тому +2

      Yep. You’re right. HT-12 is green. This car had brown dirty coolant in the main system. The intercooler system might have been fine but we don’t know what the previous shop put in it. We mentioned blue coolant being the norm but green is correct for 2020 and newer.

      According to the internet, natural repellents include Peppermint oil, cayenne pepper or cloves. Otherwise use traditional traps and repellents. Keep the area clean and free of food. Keep in a garage when possible. Last resort, sell your car and buy a bicycle. Lol
