[QUOTE="asman, post: 135031, member: 1485"] gentlemen, i'd just like to share my recent experience with temperature rising first off ,it was the water pump. kaput,got a new one then it was fine then it was the fan, got that replaced and it was fine too not long after,the temperature still kept on rising at this moment i was already going nuts(what else could it be?) then my mech serviced the radiator,flushed it n added some coolant it was fine again... after two weeks the drama came back again now i'm getting really annoyed n also confused water - ok fan - ok water pump -ok could it be a faulty termostat finally i got the answer apparently my ride didnt have enuff earth wiring can u believe that all my mech did was just add an additional wire to earth the damn thing to my suprise even my speedometer yg dah lama tak jalan suddenly works perfectly now my horn which usually sound like a kancil now sounds like a real beemer horn problem solved finally,but i do hope i wont have face this prob again temp is sitting comfortably now at 1/4 n moves just a slight notch funny thing was,my temp reading b4 was almost red if stationary but when i drove the car it came down to half almost instantly,thats when i suspected it has to be the wiring,kalau tidak hangus la engine aku by now just thot i'd like to share this wit my fellow e34ians [/QUOTE]
