Ok,
got it. if I want to order a part on my cars coolant system just for the reason of getting a OEM replacement part that would have the Bleeder valve on it which part would you recommend that would benefit from the most, if it makes a difference at all. __________________ This post was auto-generated based upon a question asked on our tech article page here: MINI Cooper Radiator, Thermostat and Hose Replacement (R50/R52/R53 2001-2006) | Pelican Parts DIY Maintenance Article |

Yes, I would go for the MINI part.

I believe the most current Thermostat design has the bleeder screw integrated onto the thermostat itself as you can see HERE (by the coolant temp sensor). If it's time for a replacement, that is the one you'll need.

They also have an update wiring harness, updated DME software for the constant thermostat codes. Appears the first batch of aftermarket thermostats were defective!
