I have 2 questions. First ...how do you tell if you have an electrical waterpump?
Second ....don't you have to siphon some coolant out after filling it up so full?
On my E46 the procedure was just as you described except for the level was way to high on the
floater when filled enough to run out of the bleed screw hole. Thanks
