X5 35i Coolant Drain DIY

I'm looking to do a coolant change on my 35i. Can anyone tell me which are the hoses to disconnect to drain the coolant?
Appreciate the input!

I'm also looking for this info.

I've had the underside covers off and best I can see it to disconnect the connection attached to the transmission cooler - could anyone confirm?

Edit: after a lot of searching I found a video that confirms the connection to pull for draining.

Fcp Euro has a YouTube video on a water pump replacement for the F15, which also includes draining and refilling the coolant.
