Where/how to fill coolant
I had to replace a punctured radiator for a 2016 m235 xdrive auto. I have to replace the coolant.
From what I have seen online, it looks like one would need to use a vacuum tool to replace the coolant and flush the system? If so, where do I connect the vacuum tool? Or, could you just keep filling the reservoir then go through the bleed process? Can anyone chime in on this? I appreciate it! |

So, I basically used the vacuum tool to refill my coolant and check for leaks and it worked like a charm hooking it up to the coolant reservoir. I then proceeded to do the car's bleed process that took about 12 minutes. Looks like everything is good.
