Good luck!!!

So not follow this guys example. You shouldnt pull the plug because how is the sealant going to have the pressure to seal any cracks in that hole if he just has it open to the environment and dont get me started in opening the rad cap while hot.

For a 6cyl.....you used the whole bottle?

this f cracked me up. love this lol.

Hello genius! Congratulations on that work, although with some mishaps, but it worked! I'm about to do the same thing on a 2008 x3 that is blowing smoke and I discovered that blue coolant is clearly visible in the hole of spark plug 4, the other spark plugs come out dry, is it necessary to remove the thermostat? And if I take it out, how do I deal with the holes that join the water pump? I'm sorry for asking so much but I'm researching elsewhere and I can't find any information. I thank you for your informative video and when you can, please answer my questions? thank you

My e46 thermostat is built into the housing, it cannot be removed separately. I am guessing your engine isn't much different from mine.

Do i need to drain the coolant after adding the bluedevil sealer to repair the head gasket or i will just continue driving the car with the bluedevil inside? and also, did you remove the thermostat

I could not remove thermostat on my car, but it is suggested to do so if you can.

My engine is getting water from somewhere I haven't seen steam or smoke coming out the exhaust pipe but I can berly notice some unstable idle by the way the gauge nidle stay like shaking at times will you recommend me to used blue devil

you can look for bubbles in the coolant tank if you open at startup BEFORE it heats up... (did you see my silly hot peek?) if the coolant is bubbling, you are getting pressure from somewhere.

Didn't Blue Devil advise you not to pour into the reservoir? Did you had to drain it out first or? Thanks.

Did a test run before draining, flushing, and refilling with coolant although I did change the oil, and she runs great. So it seems to have worked! When the rain passes here in So. Cal. I'll flush it out, reinstall the thermostat, and refill with new coolant. Overall, a successful process! Thanks for your tutorial

You’re killing me! You took the cap off to see if there’s pressure when you have a relief valve right next to it! You open the valve ya dingaling! If you want to do a what not to do that’s cool but you could have easily given yourself 2nd or 3rd degree burns there. I was shocked there wasn’t a string of cursing when it popped. If you ever HAVE to open a hot radiator cap rig up some kind of a long pole and a pipe wrench or something and have a heavy blanket over the top of it.

What caused this in the first place... a bad water pump, leaking radiator, bad thermostat etc. ???

@robdude1969

The e46 is notorious for having issues with overheating. If any part of the cooling system fails from a leaking o-ring or a crack in the plastic, coolant levels may drop and engine temps can climb above normal. If you don't let the engine cool, the head may warp slightly or even crack. The coolant channels are very close to the cylinders and the gap formed by a failure can let coolant and exhaust mix. Telltale signs are rough starts, white smoke from moisture, smell of burning coolant. Check Engine light may come on and a OBD2 reader will give you misfire codes.

I did this on a 2007 Mercedes Gl450 it was my last option. It was getting a little oil in the coolant system, no blown head gasket or low coolant. I replaced the typical which was the oil cooler, cooler gasket, oil housing gasket and a new radiator incase it was the transmission cooler built in the radiator. But still oil in the coolant, or maybe I over exaggerated and just needed to remove the reservoir and flush it out. But I used the new pour and go 2x sealing power hopefully it works 😳
