Coolant Flush for N55

Hi everyone -

I've looked all over the place for a DIY specifically for a 335i xDrive but keep running into N20 and older E90/92 videos, nothing for an F30/N55 motor. I want to flush my coolant and was wondering where to bleed it from. Do I remove the coolant directly from the water pump or does the F30/N55 have an access port or hose in a more convenient location?

Water pump will probably be your best bet, its usually where i drain mine when i have to.

^^^^^^ Agree - pull the hoses off the water pump. I got a taste when I did it but hey that's a part of wrenching in the driveway.
