328i 1996 "check cooling system"

Postby patres on Thu Oct 14, 2010 8:39 am

Hi,

I have a simple question.
Last week I changed the cooler. Started flow, because on the cooler was two small cracks. Everything is okay now. My question is The BC still reports check cooling system. I thought of the BC Check error correction on and off permanently. I had before E46 and I know that E46 errors is all deleted over the diagnostic. It is also necessary for the E36? I have a small BC.

Thank you for all tips. ;)

I take it that the message goes out after about 30 secs ..
You need to bleed the cooling system sometimes you have to do this a few times I given up on mine just check the level the same way most other people do.. (look at the reservoir)
