Do I need to bleed cooling system for
I need to loosen and possibly take off the banjo bolt that holds the coolant tube to the turbo (moving it out of the way in order to get access to the diverter valve on my N18).
In this case would I need to bleed the entire cooling system once I reattach it ?
thanks

When I removed my diverter valve, I only removed the bracket bolt that holds the water line to the compressor housing, above the intake tube connection. Just removing that bolt allowed for enough flexibility in the water line to get the diverter valve out. Then, just line up the bolt and bracket, and reinstall when done.

Well unfortunately, I have had to remove the banjo bolt to remove the hardline for coolant to the turbo in order get access to the bolts holding the DV in. Removing the bracket bolt didnt really do anything as far as being able to move it out of the way. It’s different on the N18 with the hardlines and hoses and there is just no room unless you have a 4-5” long and thin 5mm Allen wrench and some sort of ratchet attachment.
