Hi guys,

ive recently bought a 525tds and the temp goes up to half, the fan kicks in then it drops to a quart, then back up to half and so on. It never goes over half and runs fine, this happens regardless of traffic and driving conditions. The heater is fine and it has FSH last one only 4k ago, im a bit nervous as i know they are prone to coolant system probs. Is this normal as ive never had this on any other car inc previous 3 series :(

      Copy Ignition Key?

      Hi Dave, thanks for that, but I see Windows 7 is no longer available to download. Do you know of anywhere I might find it?

      2016 x6 3.0d. 70k miles

      Hi Paul Welcome to the Forum BMW in their wisdom !! Moved the timing chain to the rear of the engine so it's an engine out job if there are any timing chain problems. Having said that if the car has a solid history plus any evidence of interim oil changes you should be fine. I am personally not a fan of extended service periods so my 3.0d X5 (same engine and trans) gets an oil and filter change every year regardless of miles covered (current 133k) or what the service schdule says Hope its what your looking for if it is ENJOY Dave

      Thinking of buying one of these, any problems to look out for, do they have timing chain issues, thanks
