Just want to give a Shout Out to everyone on this thread, JAXX5, Andrew and Neil my man down under, to say that I did the Thermo at the weekend.

The needle is now standing proud at the 12 o'clock, not hovering above the cold like it used to. I am a happy camper and I used BMW coolant and BMW Thermo. I figured I was saving on labour so splash out on the parts. As you guys said, not to hard, some fiddly bolts to get out and the coolant caught be by surprise and my X5 wee'd all over my drive. reinstalled topped up and then used the bleed valves for any air locks. Drove it on a test, awesome advice! Thanks!
