3. د نصب لارښود

Proper installation is crucial for the safe and effective operation of the cooling system. If you are not experienced with automotive repairs, it is highly recommended to seek professional assistance.

3.1. د خوندیتوب احتیاطي تدابیر

• Ensure the engine is completely cool before beginning any work on the cooling system. Hot coolant can cause severe burns.
• مناسب شخصي محافظتي تجهیزات واغوندئ، په شمول د دستکشو او سترګو محافظت.
• د موټر بیټرۍ قطع کړئ ترڅو د ناڅاپي بریښنایی شارټونو مخه ونیسئ.
• د زاړه کولنټ د ځایی مقرراتو سره سم په مسؤلیت سره تصفیه کړئ.

۲. د نصبولو مرحلې (عمومي)

1. د اوبو ایستلو یخولو مایع: Place a drain pan under the radiator and open the drain plug to drain the coolant.
2. زوړ ټانک لرې کړئ: Disconnect all hoses connected to the old expansion tank. Unclip or unbolt the old tank from its mounting bracket.
3. نوی ټانک نصب کړئ: Position the new expansion tank in the mounting bracket and secure it. Connect all hoses to their respective ports on the new tank, ensuring clamps کلک دي.
4. سینسر نصب کړئ: If the sensor is not pre-installed, insert the coolant level sensor into its designated port on the tank and secure it. Connect the electrical connector to the sensor.
5. د کولنټ بیا ډکول: Close the radiator drain plug. Slowly fill the expansion tank with the correct type and mixture of BMW-approved coolant.
6. د وینې بهیدونکی هوا: Follow your vehicle's specific procedure for bleeding air from the cooling system. This often involves running the engine with the heater on high and the expansion tank cap off until no more bubbles appear.
7. د لیکونو لپاره چیک کړئ: After bleeding, inspect all connections for leaks.
8. ټیسټ ډرایو: Take a short test drive, monitoring the temperature gauge. Recheck coolant level and for leaks after the engine cools.

4. عملیات

The coolant expansion tank maintains the correct pressure within the cooling system and provides a space for coolant to expand and contract with temperature changes. The integrated coolant level sensor continuously monitors the coolant volume. If the coolant level drops below a safe threshold, the sensor triggers a warning light on your vehicle's dashboard, indicating that coolant needs to be added.

4.1. Monitoring Coolant Level

Regularly check the coolant level in the expansion tank when the engine is cold. The tank typically has 'MIN' and 'MAX' markings. The coolant level should be between these two marks. If the level is consistently low, investigate for leaks or consult a professional.

5. ساتنه

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your cooling system, regular maintenance is essential.

۵. منظمې معاینې

• بصری معاینه: Periodically inspect the expansion tank for cracks, discoloration, or signs of leaks. Check hoses for cracks or swelling.
• د سړونکي کچه: Check the coolant level weekly or bi-weekly, especially before long trips.
• Cap Inspection: Ensure the expansion tank cap is securely tightened and that its rubber seal is in good condition. A faulty cap can lead to pressure loss and overheating.

5.2. Coolant Type

Always use BMW-approved coolant (typically a blue or green ethylene glycol-based coolant) mixed with distilled water according to the manufacturer's specifications. Using incorrect coolant can damage the cooling system components.
