[QUOTE="ICEMAN 68, post: 193684, member: 17"] anyway based on some say due to Head gasket that's causing pressure to rise at radiator , what then causes the Head gasket to go bonkus ...is it due to unproper changing intervals of the engine oil ? i've noticed that many beemers that had overheating problem and so on , upon checking the dip sticks shows that the engine oil is BLACKEN in colour... i had 2 radiators changed in less than 2 years as average 1 rad worked only for 9 months...but now what's i've found based on my self assesment is that a frequent oil change had stop me from having such problem... How true ... been doing that since mid 2004 and never encounter any problem of radiator kong. Also i usually flush off the coolant in the radiator every 6 months .. [/QUOTE]
