17 00 005 Draining and topping up coolant (N52, N52K, N51, N53): Notes
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2011 BMW 328xi, 2011 BMW 328i, 2011 BMW 323i, 2010 BMW 328xi, and 2010 BMW 328i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:
Risk of scalding!
This repair work on the cooling system should only be carried out on an engine that has cooled down!
IMPORTANT:
Lifetime coolant filling:
Never reuse used coolant!
When replacing and removing components which rely on the corrosion protection effect of the coolant, it is essential to change the coolant. The cooling system must therefore be drained and refilled.
In the case of other removal work involving the draining of partial quantities of coolant, replace these quantities which have been drained with new coolant.
