    Default Bad luck

    Well guys, the motor is shot. I took the car to MR//Mcar. This guy is the very top when it comes to BMW's. The car was overheating. We replaced the water pump because the impellers on the old one were all messed up. After that the circulation in the bottome of the motor and the radiator was still no good. We replaced the radiator. And still it overheats and spits out coolent. The diagnosis is the motor is done. Maybe its a V-8 thing, but this car is starting to cost me astronomical amounts now. what a shame.

    By the way here are some pictures of my m3.

    Where does it spit out coolant?

    Internal or external leakage?

    Other symptoms? Plug condition? Engine missing? Blowing 'smoke'?

    By "circulation in the bottom of the motor and the radiator was still no good" do you mean that coolant is not returning to the block?
