 |
|
Hello all:
I am reasonably adept at mechanics and have performed routine
maintenance on a number of my vehicles over the years. However, for
my own prior 4 Bimmers I always used professional services.
Someone asked me to replace the thermostat in their 94 525 and I need
to know if its reasonably doable? Other than draining the coolant and
using sealer when reassembling, are there any "tricks" to performing
this feat?
Thanks in advance all. |

You don't need to drain the coolant and you don't need to use sealer;
the tolerances on the thing are so tight they lock together without any
need for it. The whole job should take less than ten minutes.
