Cooling System Draining And Vacuum Filling (G1822254): Filling

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Jaguar XF. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Remove the radiator splash shield.

    Refer to: RADIATOR SPLASH SHIELD

  2. Prepare a sufficient amount of coolant to the specified concentration.

    • Special Tool(s): HU-919 
    • Connect the hose from the vacuum refill adapter into a container of clean coolant.
    • Connect a regulated compressed air supply to the venturi tube assembly.
    • Install the cooling system vacuum refill adapter to the expansion tank.
  4. NOTE:
    • Make sure the coolant supply valve is in the closed position on the vacuum filler gauge assembly.
    • The coolant vacuum fill tool needs an air pressure of 6 to 8 bar (87 to 116 psi) to operate correctly.
    • Small diameter or long airlines may restrict airflow to the coolant vacuum fill tool.

    Open the air supply valve until -0.8 Bar is shown on the gauge.

    Special Tool(s): HU-919

    • Special Tool(s): HU-919 
    • Close the air supply valve.
    • Allow 1 minute to check the vacuum is held.
  6. NOTE:
    • Close the coolant supply valve when the coolant expansion tank MAX mark is reached or coolant movement has ceased.
    • The coolant is to be reused.

    Open the coolant supply valve and allow the coolant to be drawn into the system.

    Special Tool(s): HU-919 

  7. Remove the vacuum filler gauge and cooling system vacuum refill adapter assembly.
  8. CAUTION:
    • Make sure that the mating faces are clean and free of foreign material.
    • Do not exceed 1.0 bar (15 psi) when pressurizing the cooling system.
    NOTE: If the pressure continues to drop after the initial tolerance, there is a coolant leak.

    • Using the correct adapter connect the cooling system pressure test kit to the vehicle expansion tank.
    • Slowly pressurize the cooling system until the pressure gauge reads 1.0 bar (15 psi).
    • Make sure the cooling system holds pressure, and continue to step 9 to bleed coolant from the bleed points.
  9. Connect exhaust extraction hoses to the tail pipes.
  10. Start and run the engine.
  11. CAUTION: Correct installation of the coolant expansion tank cap can be obtained by tightening the cap until 3 audible clicks are heard.

    Install the coolant expansion tank cap.

  12. Hold the engine speed at 2000 rpm until warm air is expelled from the heater.
  13. Switch the engine off and allow to cool.
  14. Clean any spilt coolant from the vehicle.
  15. WARNING: Since injury such as scalding could be caused by escaping steam or coolant, allow the vehicle cooling system to cool prior to carrying out this procedure.

    Check and top-up the coolant if required.
