    Here is how to bleed the cooling system on the i8

    For the bleeding of the high-temperature cooling circuit proceed in the same way as the procedure for conventional vehicles. However, unlike in the low-temperature cooling circuit, the bleeding procedure does not end automatically, but must be independently completed by a Service employee.

    1 Evacuate and fill cooling system using vacuum filling device. Remove the vacuum filling device after the filling procedure is completed.

    2 When the expansion tank is open, open the bleeder screw for 20 seconds.

    3 Close the bleeder screw and expansion tank again.

    4 Terminal 15 ON, set IHKA controls to 28 °C / 82 °F at blower speed 1 and "Air conditioning OFF".

    5 Press the accelerator pedal for about 20 seconds at full load (engine OFF).

    6 Start combustion engine in selector lever position "P" with Automatic Hold brake engaged.

    7 Increase engine speed using accelerator pedal 4 times for about 5 to 10 seconds to roughly 3500 rpm, with a 10 second interval between the respective engine speed increases. Repeat procedure every 2 minutes for about 16 to 18 minutes.

    8 Increase engine speed using accelerator pedal 4 times for about 5 to 10 seconds to roughly 5500 rpm, with a 10 second interval between the respective engine speed increases.

    9 After 20 minutes carry out a test drive in selector lever position "S" and with heating turned on fully.

    10 The ventilation is completed as soon as hot air flows continuously from the air outlets.

    11 Adapt coolant in the cooled down state to MAX filling level.

  3. You don't need to do that much. I work with complex chilled fluid systems and the first thing you need is a refrigeration vacuum pump, I semi empty the system to 30 inches of vacuum and fill it up 3/4 of the way, then I pull vacuum again to eliminate the air pockets you introduced initially down again to 30 inches of vacuum and that's what it make the Magic happen, then full all the way up

  4. Mm my friend, the use of block seal or head gasket seal is only when you have a problem in highway and you need to go home, but is not a solution, repair your head gasket with a European car mechanic, the have the special tools to make de job, don't damage you expensive car with hot tricks, if you want a expensive car you you will pay an expensive cost for all, or go to a me mechanic school and learn how to do it yourself, good luck

  5. Sam, you have gotten a good buy after the help of your mechanic in Orlando, who was able to find the reason for the issues. But this particular model of BMW is far more complex than other cars, and is the best argument not to buy the brand, although the cars look great. My German friend buys French cars in Europe, rather than dealing with the mechanical and engineering issues that German cars sometimes have.

  6. Oh yuk, Head Gasket…..
    It maybe because of all of the overheating that it has been having.
    It may not have been the original cause of the problem, but it is now the problem.
    Good luck and I await the third video in this.

    Good Luck.

  7. The lube on the hoses is not a good idea, maybe dish soap or veg oil? Don’t use lube as it rots the rubber over time as their usually petroleum based.
