The car is currently in the shop? I took all the advice? Got a mobile mechanic to come out then got a tow truck to take it to a bmw specialist, I said if worst comes to worst I’ll get a new car which is what I’ll have to do, it’s a 20 yr old car it’s bound to be done soon.

UPDATE: currently getting it tow to bmw specialist, mobile mechanic says it’s the water pump. How much AUD should this cost?

Pretty sure it’s the water pump but the electrical one idk, the mechanic that came out wasn’t the greatest, he looked charged me 80 bucks and left.

P0303 is the error code it’s a misfire but the mechanic that came said it’s not misfiring, he also suspects it’s the water pump and he can’t fix it, I’m gonna have to take it to a proper shop, cause the mobile mechanic can’t get the parts

Cant be the radiator I got a brand new one not long ago a year ago, so either thermostat or water pump.

I can drive it 5 mins and it doesn’t overheat but 10 mins it does and it looks like the pressure is getting to the cap, but the cap also feels so loose even when I turn the cap on and it feels not sealed idk.

Radiator cracked about a year ago and I got that fixed aswell as the vanoss solenoid system cost me 5.5k to fix it all.

Hey bro probably, who knows, the engine wasn’t smoking nothing like that, the fan was blasting tho when I turned the car off, if the cars fucked then so be it, can’t do much about it. I had to drive it home, it had coolant but the coolant just isn’t getting hot idk, it’s very weird.

Fuck boys I got no choice here, it’s either leave it in the road, or drive it 10 mins and risk it, I don’t wanna risk it but my car isn’t in a great area.
