There may not be a bleeder screw because it's a motorcycle. There may be some with one, but I'm a motorcycle technician and haven't seen one yet. If you're trying to drain it, pull the lower-most hose off and drain into a container. If you're trying to get air out of system, take radiator cap off, start bike and let it warm up until coolant starts to flow out of radiator fill.

1990 BMW 525i 2.5L engine overheats after rplaceing water pump, stermostat,fan clucth,radiator

There's trapped air in the cooling system.
  • You need to remove the bleeder screw on top of the radiator when adding water to the expansion tank.
  • With the engine running, pour water into the expansion tank till you see air go out through the bleeder screw's hole.
  • Just keep adding water until no more air bubbles come out then just put the screw back in place.
  • Then fill the expansion tank to it's normal level/line.

Ok i start my bmw 1992 325i take bleeder screw out top water up to top air comes out then stops but if leave like that it starts over flowing out of plastic tank then heats up bubbling and where the little...

Just did my 95 525i. Most importantly, make sure all of the air is out, then tighten the bleeder. Let it run. If the reservoir is over flowing than it's over full. Keep an eye on the temp. gauge for bout 15 min. If it goes over normal operating temp. you still have air in the radiator and need too bleed more.

I have an E46 1999 which has an over heating problem, i was told there is a bleeding screw near the thermostat but I can't find it. Does it exist on this model if so can you guide me o where I will find it

There is no bleeder screw near the thermostat. There is a bleeder screw on the expansion tank... It's by the radiator, it's about a size of a dime, and you use a large flathead screw driver.. Becareful it is plastic, so don't force off or on. In some rare e46, there might also be a bleeder screw on the upper radiator hose.

Changing a radiator on a 1999 bmw 528i

not too difficult just make sure you bleed the system properly. two bleeder screws. one near the thermostat housing and one at the expansion tank(where you would fill the coolant) i would recommend replacing both bleeder screw and don't lose the four rubber pieces that are used to mount the radiator properly(can reuse the old ones)

HOW DO YOU PURGE OR RELEASE AIR ONCE YOU REPLACE RADIATOR, WATER PUMP AND THERMOSTAT?

the thermostat (on bmw replacement parts) have an arrow that has to be installed facing upward.if this was done correctly,to bleed the system usually there is a bleeder screw on or near the expansion tank(where you fill the coolant) and possibly on the thermostat housing. i would recommend opening both bleeders and keep filling the system with coolant closing the lower bleeder first and then allow the rest of the air purge from the other bleeder screw.make sure the coolant stays full and be patient you can't wait TOO long.

How do you vent thermostat on 325E (1985)? I replaced my upper radiator hose and I have a feeling thermostat will not open. Thanks for input on this matter.

There should be 2 bleeder screws in the system, one on the expansion tank, and one on a thermostat housing. Open both screws all the way. Turn the key to the On postion (but dont start the car). Then turn the heater to max heat, but have the fan set at the lowest setting. Fill the expansion tank til coolant comes out of both bleeder screws with no bubbles. After that close the screws (be very careful not to over tighten them!!). Then completly fill the expansion tank. (dont mind the full mark, if theres air in the system, it will drop the level in the expansion tank) And thats it. Drive the car around then check the level.

Symbol lit up

there can be a yellow light in the cluster that looks like a small radiator or box with waves inside of it to indicate water. This light means that the coolant level sensor has detected a low coolant level. Typically the expansion tanks inside of these cars will crack from heat and age. A simple diagnosis is to check your coolant level and top it off. Do not forget to bleed it by unscrewing the bleeder screw found on the upper radiator hose while filling up the reservoir found on the right hand side of the radiator. once the coolant has been filled, tighten the bleeder screw back down but be careful not to over tighten. and finally screw on the expansion tank cap. run the vehicle to operating temperature and use a flashlight to inspect the engine bay for leaks. If there is a leak, it will need to be repaired. possible leaks are a cracked expansion tank, leaking radiator hoses, or a leaking water pump or thermostat.
