How to replace the coolant reservoir in the BMW 5 Series?

Model: BMW Serie 5 E61, E60 - Years 2003-2010
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this tutorial, we can see how to replace the coolant tank in the BMW 5 Series, an extremely simple and quick operation. First of all, we wait for the engine to be completely cold, then we open the hood and, using the valve located in the lower area of the radiator, we drain the coolant. We then unscrew the fixing bolts of the tank, disconnect both the various pipes and the pressure sensor connector, and position the replacement. Finally, we reassemble everything following the reverse procedure and refill the drained coolant.
