Now I have the Bentely manual and there's the E34 BMW site. However I would like some extra tips or tricks on this from you guys who have done it a few times. Could you guys please give me some tips on how to do it. Doing it on Sunday this weekend.

Many thanks all!
They Bentley manual tells it straight. Just have a few rags on hand bunched up aruond the top to catch the out flow when it starts. Lastly be patient, if the car is cold when you start it takes a while. If you have been driving, be very careful when you loosen the screw so that you don't get a steam burn on scalded by hot coolant.

Are you using the right coolant?
