How to remove the coolant hose on BMW 3 Series E46-E90 320d

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006

Today we will see how to remove and replace the coolant or antifreeze hose on a BMW 3 Series E46, but also on the 3 Series 320d E90. First of all we open the bonnet of our car and we go to remove the metal pin of the sleeve, which we find near the block; to remove it we use something thin, like a flat screwdriver. At this point we remove the sleeve and perform the same operation on the water pump connection, as shown in the video; we just have to replace it with the new one, applying the reverse procedure!

Installation of Upgraded Intercooler Radiator with Pipes

Lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands, remove the front wheels, and then the front bumper and grille. Proceed to remove the front headlights; drain the coolant, remove the intercooler radiator and the hoses connecting it to the intake system. Position the new intercooler radiator in the grille, temporarily securing it with cable ties, and mark with a marker the part of the metal that needs to be removed to allow the new hoses to pass through. Cut the marked portion of metal and apply a gasket to the edge. Remove the inner cover of the bumper and position it near the radiator to identify any interfering parts to eliminate: again, apply a gasket to the edge of the cut. Create brackets for securing the new radiator and proceed with the installation of the connecting pipes from the radiator to the intake, shaping and connecting them appropriately. Finally, reassemble the bumper, headlights, and grille.
