BMW Serie 5 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 5 E39 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Radiator
Operation: Coolant replacement

Once the drain is complete, screw the cap back on and fill the refrigeration system with antifreeze liquid, checking whether you are using a ready-to-use product or a concentrated one that must be suitably diluted.
