[QUOTE="infinityKL, post: 525537, member: 5054"] Hi Petrus, I was in the same scenario with my E36 328 many years ago on my way back from Ipoh. Yes, i got screwed just like the bleeder screw, towed the car from Tg Malim. Always had a spare since... My advice is while at it, if you have not replaced your expansion tank, pls do so. This part also contributes to the bleeder screw failure. It causes extra/unstable pressure as it wears out, its a shame i didn't pay attention to it. Now i replace this part every 60,000kms. Mine broke at about 140,000kms :) There was also a significant feel of up in power, feels like its breathing better, smooth. [/QUOTE]
