DIY E70 BMW X5 Water Pump Thermostat replacement XDrive35i

[@sofa6alpha970]

Huge THANK YOU dude! This video saved me >$1500! I changed the thermostat and pump on my 2013 X5 this weekend using this video as a guide and everything went smoothly. This was the only video I found online that was A) super detailed and B) showed the procedure in a home garage doing the work on your back (not a lift). I ordered the kit from FCP Euro. Couple of call outs for anyone doing this in 2022: 1) the latest water pump from FCP Euro has rubber grommets and aluminum bushings in the water pump mounting holes. This is different than the OEM pump, but everything still goes together the same way. 2) When reinstalling the rad fan, the lower radiator hose causes an interference about halfway down. Have a helper hold the hose out of the way (aka my wife - thanks hon!). I took my time and followed the video step-by-step. One tip, I used a tiny bit of silicone lube on the rubber hoses when putting everything back together. There is very little leverage to push the hoses onto the thermostat. I did the project over a weekend and triple checked everything. No leaks, car runs great! The original problem was rad fan running on hyper speed sounding like a jet engine taking off. I wouldn’t say this is a beginner DIY. But, if you are handy with cars, can visualize the solution, have all the right tools (i used extensions, universal sockets, stubby flex head ratchets, E sockets, euro screwdriver bits) and confidence in your skills you can do this if you take your time, stay focused and be patient. FYI, my X5 has 117K miles - so pretty good run for the original water pump. I am so grateful to have found this video and do the repair myself - THANK YOU!

Great video...thank you for taking the time to document this procedure the tooling needed. My E70 3.5i x-drive was intermittently overheating and this seemed like a logical place to start as the car wasn't displaying a CEL or trouble code. One question...when bleeding the system I start the procedure and the pump runs for about 10 seconds then stops. I've tried several times with the same result. The bleed stream does run when I start the engine and there are no bubbles returning to the reservoir. I'm not sure that the system is properly bled and don't want to take a chance of overheating...looking forward to your future videos!!

[@Zeiten]

Thank you for your feedback, regarding bleeding it’s ok for the pump to do that, it will turn on and off during the bleeding procedure, but it’s totally fine to start the engine and let it idle with cap off and heater on for about same time

[@royyan1033]

How did you end up finishing the bleeding process? I had similar issue you described here. I started bleeding procedure and the car turns off after bleeding 10 seconds. Seems like not a bleeding related issue, but rather a car on/off issue. Thanks!

Hello friend, I have to change the engine coolant thermostat BMW X5 E70 3.0D. And I didn't know where the plug was or how to get all the antifreeze liquid out, but I watched your video and it clarified it so I could do it more clearly and safely! Can you tell me if by disconnecting the first tube you disconnect almost all of the liquid comes out? Or do I have to disconnect another tube? A greeting and thanks for sharing . jose carlos

Great channel! Just bought a 2010 X5 30i with 107k miles. I think the alternator bearing isn’t good. Charges well but making a noise. Would you do a video on that next? 😊

[@ProtectiveDiet]

Thank you for the informative video! Unfortunately I stripped one of the two bolt holes that hold the pump in place. Now, the screw doesn't catch anything when I tighten it. It appears the part that the screws thread into can be removed. Do you know what the name and part number for that piece is?

Hey, thank you so much for making this video. I would have been without a vehicle for who knows how long if you didn't make this walkthrough. So thank you very much! I am curious if you have ever seen this issue before, and if so, what I should do about it. Once I finished the job, I initiated the coolant process like you showed on your video, but my vehicles battery ended up dying while it was burping the lines. I can't remove the keys out of the ignition, and I've had it on a 12v trickle down charger for 12 hours and it still has not changed the state of the car. Do you have suggestions for what I should do in this situation? Hoping I just need a new battery. Anyways thanks for the tutorial!

[@Zeiten]

Happy to help, replace the battery, do the bleeding again and you should be fine

[@cd1667]

Thank you so much! I'll figure out how to get into the trunk to replace it.

[@cd1667]

Thank you so much! Do you know if there is a secret way to get into the trunk on a 2011 X6 x drive 35i with the battery dead?

[@Zeiten]

Fold back seats that should do it, if they are not foldable then connect jump starter under the hood that should power up the car then you can just open the trunk, there might be a trunk release handle inside the the trunk might be accessible through the back but will take some gymnastics😁

[@MrBkn2010]

Great video! Tackled the job over the last couple days. Thanks..

[@muhamedrafeek884]

Very much informative,Thank you dear. My x5 e70, cooling fan working only while turn on AC. Otherwise it won’t work even in 97/100*C which makes the coolant overflowing and showing the warning coolant level too low. What maybe the problem.

[@zildog]

Excellent vid and I have watched a number of them from start to finish. My 2017 M2 (138,000km's/ 85,000 miles) has just told me she might be about to crap her water pump (either it is that and/or the battery) so I don't want to take any chances and will be replacing both WP and Tstat as you have but I wanted to ask if it's the same procedure on an F series? Also, did you get an engine temp warning at all? I got both orange and red warnings so put my car through ISTA and cleared the errors since it appeared to be related to the aircon running but it would help if you thought they were related to the battery as well. I understand a weak battery can throw a code due to weak voltage at the water pump.

[@Zeiten]

Thank you, it’s not exactly the same on yours i would use this video DIY BMW E90 Water Pump Thermostat replacement 325i, 330i, 328i, 335i kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4vbpWB4lrFkmqc as a reference although it’s also not the same as your but it is closer to your n55 engine. As for water pump shutting down due to low voltage is a possibility but wouldn’t happen if the car is running and alternator is fine since it would be providing about 14v

[@jonfrazier7827]

Hi great information. What triggers high engine temperature on x6 2009 do these things have another coolant reservoir?

[@bryanbair6508]

Excellent video! I own a 2014 f15 35i xdrive. It doesn’t need replacing yet, but would the procedure be the same on my x5? Any differences?

[@Zeiten]

It’s similar but not exactly the same

[@M.Ari16]

Hi, just a quick one: you kept the hose disconnected from the tank at 50:31 for the air to escape, clear. But when you fill the water at 51:50 you see the hose connected again. When should this hose be connected, you didn’t mention that? Thanks for the vid!

[@Zeiten]

You can connect it anytime you want it’s not really necessary since it is a self bleeding system, that’s just an old habit of mine from previous generation cooling systems

Hi, I have a 2007 e70 X5 with dynamic drive. How do I remove the drive bar to access the thermostat and pump?

[@dogger2186]

Question following up on the Water pump/Thermostat. So history, noticed a pool of coolant under the front passenger side under the water pump/thermostat. Res completely empty. Tried to pressure test this morning @ 15 psi and it held 15 psi over 20mins no change? My question is does the thermostat need to be open to complete the test? Is the test only putting pressure up to the thermostat and not beyond? Was expecting to see pressure dope quickly giving all the coolant that came out...thoughts?

I wish I saw your video a year ago. Failed water pump cost me for expansion tank Crack, and new tires because I had to pull over frequently and picked up puncture on side of road. Thankfully class action suit against bmw for water pump defect returned 1000.00 usd to me

[@MIKEANDTHEMECHANICS]

I agree there are lots of times when you can use your best judgment on torquing of bolts but those pump bolts are made of aluminum and you don't want to mess around with guessing they have a torque spec to set them and then an angle torque to make sure you don't snap them right off. Just saying.... 35yrs of experience breaking bolts off....lol

Tim, first, thank you for the video! I have a question. I replaced the thermostat and waterpump which i purchased from FCP. Install went great, no obvious cooling issues. Now i am getting a P0597 CEL. I checked the wires to the thermostat, everything looks to be in great shape. Could it be a faulty new thermostat ? Any advice would be appreciated!! Thank you!

[@Zeiten]

Happy to help, i’d say there is a high probability of just bad thermostat, not the first time with fcp parts

[@nathan123volgs7]

AWESOME Video 👍🏼 Quick question. What if I did the bleeding procedure just to check of the water pump turns on. My case it did.

[@Zeiten]

It’s ok, running pump not necessarily means it operating at full capacity but if it doesn’t there is usually a code stored in dme stating exactly that. You can run bleeding procedure and any time the only downside possible is draining the battery that’s it😉

I had this happen on a Ford Explorer, when the serpentine belt broke while it was flopping around it broke the connector going to the A/C clutch.
