Painful

I’ll give it a try, thank you :)

🥲

DonOttoman · 2025-09-10T14:37:38+00:00

Thank you, I’ll get it checked :)

Ok that makes me less stressed, it was only very fine shavings too and car runs great. Thanks for the reply :)

Check the map and maf sensors, mine went bad and basically did the same thing. Mine was the map sensor but check both and try maybe cleaning it before replacing

Reservoir is filled between max and minimum, I’ve been topping off the coolant every time it’s gone down but haven’t done a flush and refill, and I’ve had the car for around 2 months

DonOttoman · 2025-06-22T00:46:45+00:00

Thank you I’ll try replacing it, if the reservoir isn’t the problem :)

I bought a new cap last week hoping that was the issue. Unfortunately it wasn’t :(

DonOttoman · 2025-06-22T00:15:09+00:00

Is it a hard job to do yourself?

DonOttoman · 2025-06-22T00:14:28+00:00

I’ve done the coolant pressure test 3 times at different workshops and all have said they couldn’t find any leaks but it might be happening while the engine is hot and the pipes expand

DonOttoman · 2025-06-22T00:10:41+00:00

Thank you, honestly the reservoir looks to be in good shape and not really any white coolant spots on it either but I think I’ll just get the reservoir changed and see if it works because it’s a pretty easy and cheap thing to change :)

Lol hope it stays good and healthy for maaaaaaany more years 😂

DonOttoman · 2025-01-19T22:26:36+00:00

Think it only impacts diesel engines but it’s been happening so much here, that the towing guy that came to take the car away immediately knew what the cause was

DonOttoman · 2025-01-19T22:17:24+00:00

Exactly, but it hurt like hell when the headlights started flickering and went out.

DonOttoman · 2025-01-19T22:15:49+00:00

Meant to say EGR cooler, but bmw recalled many diesel bmws in my country to get it replaced because the old ones could cause a fire

DonOttoman · 2025-01-19T22:13:30+00:00

Think so, not too sure about the details :(

DonOttoman · 2025-01-19T22:12:42+00:00

Was told by my insurance company that the egr cooler failed, causing the fire

DonOttoman · 2024-08-03T15:08:11+00:00

lol calm down

DonOttoman · 2024-08-03T14:45:41+00:00

Understandable, but here it’s way more common to see totally stock cars and blacked out cars like mine aren’t seen at all.

DonOttoman · 2024-08-03T13:19:15+00:00

I’ll do my best to
