Anton_750li · 07-10-2023, 06:40 AM

Hi all, I am a bit confused as to where the coolant reservoir locations are. In the picture I know the front one is a coolant reservoirs but I don't know where the other one is. Please see the attached photo. This is the first v8 BMW i have owned so not used locations. All the rest have been inline 6s. Thanks

Thats the N63TU engine...and the engine coolant reservoir (in your pic) will be the cap in the rear right of the engine bay...near the windshield.

See pics below for more detail. There is no measuring tool for the N63TU engin coolant reservoir...you will need to make a tool to determine fill:

Welcome to BMW V8 ownership.

Here' illustrated diagrams that show the 3 engine coolant circuits on the N63 variant engines. The engine coolant reservoir is actually in the front left fender...that's why the reservoir cap and fill tube is in the back of the engine bay.

You will also see the 2nd (smaller) coolant reservoir that's up front which is used by the DME charge air cooling circuit.

Not sure if you've seen the replies yet...but just in case the engine cover is throwing you off...the engine coolant refill location and fluid level check is on the right rear of the engine bay as you stand in front of the car:
