can you do a power steering replacement tutorial?
@@NinoBrownFTW Haha if we ever do this job, then sure thing!
I just removed my water pump. A few comments. Unlike N54, N55 water pump does not have thermostat piggybacked on it. People change water pump and thermostat on N54 at the same time because of "mind as well" but I have never seen thermostat going bad. For N55 (on F10 at least), I decided there is no need to change the thermostat so there is no need to remove fan shroud. That saves a lot of work. To remove the water pump, just drop the sway bar, disconnect wire connector, and 3 bolts, pull out the pump a bit to disconnect 2 worm clamps (6mm) and drop the pump out from bottom. All can be done from the bottom without even a need to open the hood. When putting the worm clamps back, make sure u position them so that the 6mm screws can be more easily accessible for the next person.
curious did you try the metal housing version or go with the BMW/or plastic aftermarket style, thx!
@@dylyo1I did the thermostat last weekend. I'll be doing my water pump next. I decided to go with the Aluminum pump.
Mechanics are really MAGICIANS! Wish it wasn’t so many shady ones around. Also wish I could bring my f10 to you to change my stat and pump 😩 the dealer wants to much and the bmw guy I know that has a shop said it’s a pain and hoses break and such…has me scared to let him do it but you made it look so regular and I can tell you know exactly what you’re doing since you didn’t struggle, the ease in your voice etc 👍
Thank you for a straight forward no BS added video.
Those are the kind of videos I like! Haha
@@YEVSBUILDS I have learned and saved a lot at TH-cam University but nothing has come close to what this video did for me. I followed everything you said and I have my car running fine again. The stealership wanted $3800 to do this job and I have about $600 in OEM parts invested. It was a bit of a pain in the ass but I win. The only thing I did different and suggest to anyone viewing your video is to put a piece of plexiglass in front of the radiator for insurance. I needed it.. lol ....I OWE YOU GUYS A ROUND !!! Thank you.
@@AMCII Bro!!! Love this!! Glad we could help!!!
I have a 2014 F10 535i, so I'm glad i caught this video. Thanks.
Same! It’s a pain to keep up with the maintenance. I bought it 2 years ago at 90k miles on it. Rookie mistake
@@eddiee.832 I bought mine when it was two years old, and only 31k miles. The only issue, and it's quite common on these cars, was an oil leak at the oil filter/cooler housing. It's a couple of hours and $150 if you can do it yourself. If you take it to the dealer, add another zero. lol
@@rollydoucet8909 bahaha seriousy man. this is the only issue I've had on mine other than the oil housing leak.
Great video! Thorough and short, with the right information.
Thank you bro! That's how we like em to be!
This video was A LIFE SAVER!!! Fantastic job guys!!! Love the humor as well... "Buy an F10 they said!" 🤣 Spot on technicals!!!
Hahah happy to help!!
2min in and I already have ah headache 🤕
Oh yeah. Great vid. Pro tips. Easy easy steps!! LFG ⚙️⚙️⚙️
Good concise instructions
Thank you. Very helpful quick and to the point! Awesome!!!!
Happy to help!
@yevsbuilds I changed the both the water pump and thermostat, I went to start the bleed and there was no noise from the water pump…. Any idea what my problem is? (Also how long should it take to hear a noise , I waited about 5 minutes and then my battery died)
Great simple vid! Just a quick question, did you have to top it off a lot during the bleeding procedure? And how many liters of coolant is needed for this whole procedure?
Thanks!

Short and sweet video Thanks!!!!!!
Happy to help!
How hard is it to change the water pump, from 1-10? Thanks
You have to always keep the coolant below min??? Because I thought that mine is leaking and I would top it off to max, but it always goes away to below minimum, so I was worried for nothing?
Great video! Thanks
Happy to help!
I have this same car with the n63 v8 engine. Does that mean my water pump is belt driven and not electric like this? Why some engines don't have the electric water pump?
I changed my water pump on N55 535i and it doesn’t work, error code 20ab08… please help 😊 Riaz
I have a 2016 535i, after replacing water pump & thermostat the car runs at around 245° - 250°. Should it be at around 220° like before? I'm not getting any overheating alerts btw
Just changed mine, 2015 535i. Good video. Water pump itself is not bad, thermostat is another story. Royal PIA to remove and reinstall. Piss poor design.
How much did it cost to replace I have the same problem now
Can't remember exactly. Around $650 I think with everything. Got the parts from FCP Eruo.
@@davidbrittingham9512 OK, thanks! I don't trust mechanics! I'll be paying around $530 for the fix, the OEM part is like $550 found a generic one on eBay for $130 and labor is $400. First, the problem was the radiator fan but I got an overheating error the moment I got home and sat in the driveway for a spell. They charged me $315 for a radiator fan the OEM part was $700 I found a generic one on eBay for $150! So, I'm looking at just over $800 in total. Hoping these generic parts hold up!
I agree. The thermostat was a complete PITA. Mine was really stuck. Also, getting the rear quick disconnect hose on the new part was difficult. I recommend using some type of lubricant on the fittings, i.e. WD-40.
Hello yevs! I have a 550d and the car heat fastly and fan begin to turn in second power very fast and noisy, but the problem is that the pipe coolant from the engin is very hot and the radiator is cold, what problem it’s will be you think? Thank you 🙏
Thanks for the Video 😊bro
Happy to help!!
Some water pumps have the electronic box on the front and some on the back of the pump,should I check what kind is mine or any type can fit on the car?
Do you happen to know where the second fuse or control module fuse is for the water pump.. I'm aware of the integrated module fuse but is thier another fuse
No sorry bro. Check on realoem.com you should be able to find it there
whats the average cost to replace water pump and thermostat on a 2013 535i xdrive
Very helpful 😍😍😘
I gave my local bimmer shop $1300 for the replacement + thermostat + coolant flush
(F10 n55 LCI 2014)
How many water pumps do 2013 bmw 550i xdrive turbo have?
2
@@wilsonfelix6788 I have a bunch of lights on the dash abs drivetrain traction etc when I replace them will they all go away or what will go away?
@@rickymoore1176 sell me
The car
My 2015 535i is overheating 127K miles 10k left paying it off 😩😩 problem after problems
What water pump and thermostat did you end up using? Is it the kit from fcp euro?
Ooo this was so long ago but yes I believe so haha
Can i drain it from the small radiator front of the front left wheel ?
Yeah but majority of the coolant will still be in the radiator
What’s that ‘cute little tool’ to get that top side T40?
1/4in drive wrench with a t40 bit
I have a 2015 535 XI that leaks coolant sporadically. It'll leak then stop leaking for weeks. Replaced the thermostat, but the issue continues. Anyone have an idea as to what's going on?
Did u change water pump?
Please I question
I have 2011 bmw 528i and the engine temperature 🌡 is 250F, is that normal. Thank you
No it’s overheating..
I CHANGED A WATER PUMP ON A 76 MONTE CARLO 20 DOLLARS/20 MIN.S /AFTER 165 K MILES, NOW BMW WANTS 4/5 K DOLLARS EVERY 40 K MILES SO MUCH FOR IMPROVMENTS, NICE GOING BMW !!!
Typical boomer response….all caps and everything 😂
Did you really just compare a car from 1976 to one from 40 years later? All cars are more complex now, not just BMW.
anybody have an idea about HOW LoNG this takes.... ?
how much cost all that damage
1600
My car has 150000km. The water pump still works. When should I change the water pump?
When it stops working I guess haha
I’m no mechanic but I’d say when you get all or some of the signs, for me I was getting intermittent fan noise. I knew it wasn’t normal like one mechanic said because what is the fan trying to cool off! And yep, I got the code….water pump needed 😒
Just replace it soon as possible, “when it stops working” is a dumb answer because the car goes into limp mode. It’s smart to replace it rather than to be stranded with car that won’t start.
Let’s GET IT
Eyyy!!!!
You can do the water pump for top side without any work below...this is a bunch of work you dont have to do!!
Agreed! Seems that is what a shop would do to waste time and charge more.
How? Vid pls!!!
I find the lack of oil leaks disturbing.
Hahaha something ain't right here
OK, easy. Only 10 minuts work.
Is it the same procedure on a f15?
