BMW Serie 5 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 5 E39 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Radiator
Operation: Expansion tank disassembly instructions

First of all, it is suggested to disassemble the coolant expansion tank when the engine is cold for obvious reasons. Start by removing the gasket on the edge of the plastic cover of the cooling fan and then disassemble the cover itself by extracting the pressure locks: one of the locks also blocks the tray. Once the plastic cover has been removed, unscrew the fastening clamp of the recovery tube connected to the radiator and remove it, then unscrew the plastic screw near the cap of the tank and remove it together with the recovery tube after disconnecting the tube on the bottom .
