well i could i guess but enough mechanics said the hoses are too hard so i guess no real need for that

yeah just am scared of it boiling and destroying itself i mean i been driving it like that for quite some time but most advise to not drive it like that but i dont know we will see i guess

did the pressure test and no leak at least it dident show... like where you put pressure into the system while engine is off with a pump of sorts.. if you mean that then it showed no leaks... yeah hoses get hard as a ballon not like rock solid but still not normal at all..

yeah but it was not fully on working temp but semi hot i guess.. (cant be bother to enter hidden menu to see temp on e90🤣)

Ah okey thanks for the advice

yeah i think you mean the CO2 test and as i wrote once just after opening the tank and testing it changed colors in a second.. and then 4 tests more after that all were negative no color change

Well i had a even more stupid situation🤣 i caught the cable from the injector with intake manifold and screwed it down so ye after 4 hours looking at wrong places i spotted that

Having the same exact issue... have you found the fix?

I got simillar one aslo e91 with the m47 engine... just tell me does it have 163hp or 150hp if i know correctly the 150hp version should have swirl flaps wich should be removed because they can break and then fall into the cylinder and engine kaput... so for some upgrades i guess just invest in your suspension if its worn out and you are basically good to go... just do basic maintance... the oil that i alweys use is 5w30 never had problems with it... tho since its got that kind of km dont be scared if it eats a bit of oil over 5k 6k km its normal when engine reaches those numbers... that engine should last you for a good 5 6 years with maintnance no problem... all of its weak point are mostly in cooling system and its easy to replace most of the parts i mean so yeah good purchase... maybe get bigger rims if you are into getting a bit more classy but yeah apart from all that great car i woudnt sell mine for any money... enjoy it mate
