Any DIY sources for this repair?
Hi I have an e60 2007 525i and I was told by a reputable mechanic that I need to change the lower radiator hose ( Part # 17127521778) the temp sensor ( Part # 13621433077) and a 4 way hose that seems to be known as the return hose as well (Part # 17127560160). They want $1300 to do it but I can get the parts for no more than $300 so I'm trying to find any resources that shows a DIY of this procedure to gauge if it's something I'm capable of doing. The 4 way hose is giving me the most trouble as far as finding info online. I've done repairs on the car before but they all had ton of DIY resources I was able to watch and read before performing. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Worth noting: I was told there was a coolant leak on the temp sensor of the lower radiator hose and that the 4 way hose looked swollen from a previous oil leak. This is why the need for replacements. |

I am not sure if there is a DIY, but the Bentley manual for the E60 should have a good step by step description.

If you have your new parts just locate them in your car, see where they are tightened up and just dismount everything in order to change these parts. |
