Before you put the coolant back, it's good to "flush" the system with distilled water. When doing this, add uv dye, drive around, then get back under the hood with a black light. You'll know immediately if there's even the slightest leak. If there's no leak, flush the water, add proper coolant. Then when it's all done and you know you did a good job. My favorite thing to do after a day of working on my car is spark up a big beautiful blunt ⚒️😎🚘
Thank you for this video. I have a 96 328I and it’s leaking coolant too. It’s probably from the same place where yours was leaking too. I’m having it serviced today.
great channel. this guy needs more views
Thanks for the vid
Nice car man!
Great video. Keep it up
Happy to see that you take care of you'r e36. Good job.
I like e36's, i have 2 of e36, 318is coupe for daily and 328i Convertible for weekend drive's. Good Video. Thumbs UP!
+naukjis awesome! Fun cars to drive! Thanks for watching man!
Hi Gavin Love ur E36 clips I see u have the mishimoto electric fan any video of how the wiring diagram goes?! I have a 16” ebay electric fan but can’t figure out how to connect the temp sensor on a radiator pls any help will be appreciated Thanks
Ha! Hose clamps Check LOL Great video man, glad you got it sq'd away
+Bimmer Dude those ones were so much better than the OEM ones 👍.
Treats On The Streets they actually are not. The clamps BMW use do not chew up the hose like the replacement you purchased.
It’s also incorrect to use any gasket maker, although I understand why you think you needed it (you didn’t).
Car looks pretty clean. Do you know why your drivers seat is from an early 95 M3? Might be related to your airbag light.
+Braymond141 the BMW clamps were old and a few were cracking. Looked like they needed to be taken care of. Don't doubt they have a good design though!
The air bag light is due to a bad passenger seat belt tensioner.
Cover up the radiator, that is a very good lesson :D
I upgraded all the cooling part to metal too. Looks you just have the plastic expansion tank left. I have had two E36s and both got cracked plastic expansion tanks along the seems. Mishimoto makes a good expansion tank as well.
Did you use the Mishi tank on yours?
I just installed it. I got everything except the electric fan. That will come next month. If it wasn’t for the plastic parts the E36 would be bullet proof
When are you going to supercharge your car bro?! I would love to see that.
@@Jason-gt2kx let me know how to tank works out once you'd had it for a while. I know my plastic tank is a ticking time bomb lol
@@TreatsOnTheStreets Sure. Its a welded metal tank so I know it will last longer than 2 or 3 plastics ones. Plus, like their radiator it got a life time warranty.That plastic tank is the weakest link in your cooling chain other than your hoses. I also got their silicone blue hoses mostly because their blue, but they aren't really necessary. Its not a matter of IF, but when that tank will bust. Especially the way you drive my friend! lol My ;mechanic friends who work on BMWs and race say the tanks only last 4 or 5 years.
Have you replaced the belt and pulley with the aluminum upgraded one?
literally just did a coolant system overhaul on my 99 M3. Keep the videos coming. A rouge engineering short shift kit and polyurethane transmission mounts would be a good addition.
+Brick Der nice! Yeah, just did some poly motor mounts. Luckily the car already came with trans mounts and a short throw when I bought it 👌. Thanks for watching brother!
"OK, here's why it's leaking"... I still remember the day my doctor said that to me
+Earnest Bunbury 😂
love the gauges. i have a 5 speed 4 cylinder e36 with the old pc. think they could be installed?
I don't see why not.
Hopefully this pump takes care of your issue for good. However if it doesn't or you want more cooling, get a Stewart Water Pump. They're pricey but worth it. Its design prevents cavitation and increases flow which obviously helps bring temps down and stabilize quicker.
Great video otherwise, as always!
+LockDots those Stewart pumps look awesome. If I have to replace my pump again I'll definitely go with one of those! Thanks for the input man!
Great and extremely informative channel! I just to find out, how well is that water pump working? Do you still have it in the car?
Thanks! Works great so far.
@@TreatsOnTheStreets Great stuff! Thanks! I've decided to do an upgrade to the cooling system on my 328i.
Ok Heads up If you want 20 degrees cooler oil temp and as quiet your engine Harmonics can be do the Cerma Engine treatment ! I did and thats what i got !!! 06 M3 80 K Miles
hope that did the trick, i'm getting paranoid from my new cooling system almost exactly like yours
+JR Claridad so far so good!
When are you going to fix that airbag light fix? Let me know how you did it Thanks 👍🏻
I made a video a while back where I went through the process of reading the code and explaining what it was. (The video titled "BMW Hooning". I answer all your questions in that video.
Your airbag light is on haha. Mine came on a while ago, I should really do something about that...
+Jason I ran a diagnostic and it's from the passenger side belt tensioner.... nbd lol
take out the light blob and put inside some paper... done.
So was your upper radiator hose leaking? I’m having the same overheating problems. It overheats when idling. I check my engine bay an see there’s been coolant splattered all around. I had the same leak spot near the upper hose on that canister and on the bottom it looks like there was a lot of dripping coolant and like something just sprayed out coolant an I’m not sure from where
No just around the water pump. The car never actually overheated either, just sprung a little leak that the pullies flung everywhere. I just replaced other things while I was at it to avoid issues in the future.
So weird to see you without sunglasses hahaha
+Soorya Todatry haha yeah I know! I'm usually wearing them huh?
nice DIY. What is your idle rpm ?
+Harish Seethapathi I'd have to look to make sure but probably somewhere around 700-800rpm
I did my overhaul last march on my e39 and just recently had a leak. I got all my parts from fcp all metal replacements. Turns out it was the aluminum thermostat housing I heard bad things about the castings and sure enough it wasn't flat. Problem solved!!! Who made your expansion tank mount?
+325iskarnage dang I've heard about people having problems with those. Makes me uneasy because I have one. It's been on for the past year no problem luckily. Maybe it's all that RTV lol. The expansion tank mount came with the mishimoto electric fan when I bought it off of ecs tuning.
Where did you buy your headlights, specifically your halos?
EBay for around $280-300. The Halos didn't come separate and are already installed in the headlights. They're DEPO glass lens headlights with LED angel eyes. Search that in eBay and you should find them 👍.
Hey man, what kinda angel eye lights are those? Thanks :)
+Car Skillz I actually get that question a lot haha. They aren't something sold on their own. They're in the headlights I bought. DEPO glass lens headlights with LED angel eyes. Got them for around $300 on eBay 👍. Thanks for watching man
Sweet thanks man. :) Also I'm putting a 6 speed into my 97 328I any pointers on what kind of ZF tranny to get?
+Car Skillz sweet! I'm actually not sure on what works with the e36 cars besides the Getrag 420G from the e46 m3 like I bought. Maybe a six speed from the e46 330. They are significantly cheaper.
Hey Gavin! Noticed you have a Dinan CAI and a 3.5 MAF, any other mods done to support these? Thanks
+Andi Selaj hey man! It has a tune and Dinan exhaust. Other than that I think those are all the power mods it has.
Treats On The Streets That thing sounds sweet when doing pulls. I bet an M50 intake would make it pull harder up the rev range.
+Andi Selaj thanks! It's definitely one of my favorite things about the car. Love the sound! Yeah an m50 manifold is another good one!
Can you please tell me where you got those gauges where that old cubby( used to be ) near your shifter is?!
+Ralph Jimenez I actually get that question a lot! The brand of the gauges is VDO. Unfortunately ( but fortunately for me ) they came on the car when I bought it so I am not able to tell you where exactly they were purchased.
Thanks for the quick reply #e36m3gang
+Ralph Jimenez of course! Thanks for watching man! ✌
How do you like the ValentineOne? I was looking at the Passport 9500ix? Any advice?
I have had both a passport and a valentine. I really can't say that I prefer one over the other, but I really like the directional radar alerts with the arrows.
Cool thanks for the info. Ill do some more research
Link for those parts please!
I got a stock 05 bmw 325i with 175k miles that is a daily driver and I do my repairs myself. Any tips on what I could do to make it more powerful without harming the engine or other components?
Where did you get the plate to mount the oil temp gauges?
Vac sells them
By the way Gavin, I'm not 100% sure if this goes for m3s but if you hold down your ASC button it will turn off DSC which is a secondary type of traction control. You'll know if you've turned off all the systems if you try to press the ASC button and it wont toggle it on or off. It will just stay off. Also I'm not sure if you deleted it yet but e36's have a clutch delay valve that is basically a funnel in the hydraulic line right above the slave cylinder which makes it so that no matter how hard you drop your clutch it wont just drop it. Its a luxury thing that takes 2 seconds to remove, you just need to bleed the line after.
+David Mordechai that same thing happens when I hold the asc but I don't need to. On the M3 just simply pressing asc turns it all off. I unfortunately still have the cdv... have the stuff to take care of it but probably won't until I swap the 6 speed in. Thanks for the input man👍✌.
Oh awesome! I saw your video on the e46 6 speed actually but yeah if your putting the good brake fluid in then I would wait as well haha, that stuff is expensive! But I could just tell by the burnouts and I would assume its prematurely wearing your clutch like it did to mine, until eventually I did a burn out that was straight clutch. I don't know if you remember but i commented on your video about the e34 steering joint which I got the part for, I just live in Florida so I'm preparing for Irma, but I'll probably put it in while we're out of power haha.
+David Mordechai best of luck to you with the hurricane man. The install on the steering joint is pretty simple so I bet that will go well for you. You'll have to let me know what you think of it once it is in!
Thank you, I've lived in Florida so I've been through a bad hurricane before, it shouldn't be that bad. But I definitely will have to let you know since you inspired me to do it haha. Also is your steering wheel slightly off when your going straight? I feel like my wheel is slightly off and has been ever since I went to a custom hub and wheel.
+David Mordechai if your wheel is off that is something you can adjust when you disconnect the steering column for the e34 joint 👌
How is your wiring done for electric fan?
With the wiring kit from mishimoto
why you didnt just use heat silicone for gasket? It would done the job.
+Matīss Nazgra I've had good experiences with the stuff I used in the past, so I decided to use it again.
howcome no links to parts you installed
Everything I bought was from ecs tuning
@@TreatsOnTheStreets and FCPEuro, much better company IMO
They didn't have what I needed at the time or I would have honestly.
My coolant leak is from the thermostat housing, not the water pump. A constant PITA.
Buy a metal housing. Those seem to have less issues.
@@TreatsOnTheStreets it is metal (aluminum) housing. I think the orange gaskets being sold today are of poor quality. Oh well.
@@masscomnet I used the gasket plus rtv
Have you ever had to do a head gasket? How hard is it on a 98 328i?
Never had to thankfully lol. If you have the right tools and know how it shouldn't be too bad!
RTV to the rescue! my M3 would leak everywhere without it. For more DIY videos check out the BENVIDPRODUCTIONS CZcams channel
+benvidproductions I've seen your channel before!👌 Thanks for watching man!
+Treats On The Streets yeah definitely, I keep up on all the BMW guys out there
Spending so much time working on that car, but can’t finish the walls of the garage? Come on man, paint them asap :P
Turkıyede temızı olmayan araba:)
lol should of went with the s2k. Bmw sucks unless it has a 2jz in it.
