    Heating up agaiiiiiiin! :(

    Hi guys,

    Long time ago my car used to heat up, and what i did was bleeding (and i cant remember if i changed something with the fan, belt, etc) and things worked out fine!

    Now the car is heating up again! (the oil level indicator that is, see attached picture).

    What should i do now? How can i fix the problem. Was this discussed in another thread???

        Some of us here are having this problem because of the weather as well... still trying to find a solution. I think there was a thread about this to be honest... someone mentioned Spall or electric fans etc...

        Dude... did u change the light color of the cluster?! from the pic they look indigo blue!

                this is as far as i understand (correct me if i am wrong) a public forum, where people share ideas on how to make the bmw lifestyle better and more pleasurable and enjoyable..where we benefit from others mistakes and learn from our own ,share experiences..all in a common goal to make everything and everyone better, not the opposite.. do i need to remind everyone of all the laughs we had and how many times we shared food and shisha together..how many times we all stayed up late to fix anothers friend (brother) issues?? This is what makes a community, us, people..a common understanding and fellowship..respect

                  Need to see a pic of the oil temperature (it's not the oil level guage, just temp). If it's slightly above the 100C mark (between half and 3/4 point) then it's normal in summer driving.

                      Yes that is very normal, specially in summer.. I was worried like you when it first time happened to my car as well, but later found out that its normal..

                      Relax :)
