For a late FYI: I swapped mine out at 105k when my radiator died. The plastic pieces were in great shape, but it was false economy not to swap everything out. Like any rubber or plastic part, failure is a mix of usage and luck of the draw. Some parts are run ragged and last forever, and some give out when granny's driving. __________________ Friends don't let friends call it "Beamer". It's Bimmer, like Rim. |
