[QUOTE="jarance, post: 317969, member: 21"] first, do an engine compression to check for gasket blown. You have experience an overheating due to rapid loss of coolant. This is a symthom that is dread by bmw owner. When you fill the cooler tank, was the engine still hot. if you have so, chances is that the engine cynlider could be warped dur to rapid cooling. Why did you still drive the car when you water tank is still leaking. That is not a wise thing to do considering you have an engine overheating due to lack of coolant. If your engine felt like underpower before it die, chances is that your engine gasket have blown. Pray that the engine water jacket does not have any hairline crack. just do a top overhaul. a top overhaul do not mess with your crankshaft as it in the bottom half of the engine. [/QUOTE]
