dang the whalen video makes this look like an easy job lol. my kit is supposed to be arriving today. looks like i have a fun weekend coming up. thanks for the vid
Should clean all the hoses since everything is off and spray silicone spray in everything. It'll keep all rubber and hoses hydrated and from future cracks.. Walmart sells silicone spray in a green can. $5.99
Ive done 3 trails so far and it hasn't overheated. I believe the first trails it went a little above half and I think it was due to me not bleeding the coolent correctly.
Ive done 3 since I responded 😅 and regular trail rides in over 100 degree weather. It won't get the full beans until my glamis trip in October. I will for sure update my channel if it fails.
My 23 X3 is overheating a lot! The radiator is clear and clean, fans come on, and coolant is full. I’m thinking the thermostat is stuck shut for whatever reason.. I trail ride and mud in mine. Do you think this kit will help me?

Someone said removing the rear passanger seat may give you access. I have a bench seat and I didn't give it a try

Thanks for letting me know I've actually never heard of that. Luckily I haven't riveted the skid plate yet and will check that out
So….. you take out passenger seat and remove the back panel and have access to that area…… no rivet drilling needed
That's very good to know for future reference. Unfortunately, I have a bench seat, and it's a hassle to remove it to get in that area.
Did the overheating went away?

And on the last 2 did it stay at 4 bars?
Were you giving it all the beans or just trail cruising
