Engine Block Coolant Drain Plug on 550 V8 (N62)?
Does anyone know where the engine block coolant drain plug is located on the V8 N62 engine? Any photos?
I have the Bentley manual, which shows a picture of where the plug is on the 6-cylinder engine, but only says "the plug is on the left side of the V8," with no picture or description of *where*. I spent an hour and a half yesterday crawling all over the car trying to locate a plug, with no success. Searches on Bimmerfest, 5Post, Bimmerforums, and Google were fruitless. Very frustrating. I was trying to replace the coolant, but I was only able to collect 1.5 gallons out of the almost 3.75 gallon system capacity. Any ideas?
