99 z3 2.8l roadster

[Sijray21]

strange part is i saw the BavAuto (RIP) video where he used this tool, but his was fine. the bleeder screw on the reservoir will overflow by design (like jake mentioned), and Bentley even referred to the M52s as having a secondary bleeder near the thermostat housing, but the z3 doesn't have that hrug:.

i'll just drive it and keep an eye on the coolant, refilling as needed. the last cycle i did last night got most of the air out, but now i'm out of coolant so a trip to get more is needed. Mildly annoying, but a learning lesson for me.
