			Follow the hose to the other end, disconnect it, then rettach and fill and bleed system.   - Nick | ||

			What year and model MINI do you have?  You're looking at an article for the first gen MINI, but posted a hose for a second gen MINI.   The coolant expansion tank article you'll want to reference is: MINI Cooper R56 Coolant Expansion Tank Replacement (2007-2011) | Pelican Parts DIY Maintenance Article Hopefully that'll help you with that part better. If you do have a gen 1 MINI you'll want a different part so let me know. | ||
