Hi All,

One of my radiator hoses has sprung a leak, so I am planning on replacing all the major water hoses on the engine.

https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showpa ... Id=11_1167

From what I can see, I will need the following hoses and clips.

Hoses: 1, 4, 7 &11
Clips 2, 5 & 6.

Any other suggestions or recommendations, please?

Advice appreciated.

TIA! :D

when i did mine i replaced all the coolant hoses in the engine bay with a complete silicone hose set & brand new clips all round, cost me a fair bit but been spot on since.
if it's got t*ts or wheels it's bound to be trouble...............prove me wrong.

Hi Steve,

I’ve only ordered the 4 I listed. I’ll ask the mech to inspect the others that aren’t so obvious when it’s having the work done.

Cheers.
