One case of lesson learnt - the hose clip from the radiator relieve broke, and hose wrapped around the radiator fan, causing the fan blades to broke off. High temp in radiator resulted. This happened to me on my way to Singapore, just pass Senai toll. Night time 10:30pm. Managed to stop the car immediately by the road side. Decided to repair car in Singapore since home ground, hence activated toll-truck (Malaysia) to tow car to Woodlands causeway - RM200 levy to pass + RM250 toll service. Singapore tow S$100. Reached Singapore 4 am, not something you wish to end up. No damage to cylinder this time - very lucky. Went back family radiator repair shop at Yew Tee to get radiator flushed and checked for leak. And metal clipped very hoses in the engine compartment. No issue driving back to KL.
Hopefully the replacement stops here...as I am preparing to buy another BMW but E46 325 this time for wife as she join me in Malaysia soon.

328i ABS pump leaking..new member
Hello all, just came across this site while searching online for an ABS brake pump..Im new here..searched thru all 64 pages of tech talk on chassis & tyres and I think Im the only one with this problem here..?? This is wat happened, I bought this car abt half yr ago..a '98 328i convertible from the BMW dealer (approved used car)..so far repair the fuel tank line, changed tie rods, roof motor, top up a/c gas, check ATF...when I bought the car it already had a soft brake pedal problem but I thought was due to old pads/discs/tyres...until recently brake warning light come on (ABS light) so I took to mech to change d rotors & pads in front..but then he found out the ABS brake pump was dripping brake fluid slightly...no wonder when i brake pedal is firm initially but then sinks a bit after that...Anyone know where I can get this part in KL..cos it might work out cheaper for me to get from there using Air Asia rather than buy the part where I am right now...will it be new or reconditioned..etc?Do drop me a reply or by email thanks....
