Car running hot.
I recently changed the thermostat, and water pump and the car is running hot. I've bleed the cooling system 4 times and the temp gauge is showing around 3/4. Could this be the head gasket? |  |  | | 06-05-2008, 04:22 AM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2006 Location: Southern California - Orange county Posts: 978 |

I'm almost positive you haven't bled it correctly. First time bleeders have a hard time... I had a ton of trouble with mine. After a bunch of hot/cold cycles the air will work itself out. | | | | | 06-05-2008, 05:03 AM | #4 | | Moderator Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: SoCal318ti Posts: 1,574 |
The other thing to consider is a cloged radiator. | | | | | 06-05-2008, 11:35 AM | #5 | | Junior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: Denver,CO Posts: 27 |
I bleed it while it was on my ramps. And this is my third e36 so I'm pretty sure I know how to bleed them by now. | | | | | 06-05-2008, 01:18 PM | #6 | | Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: NJ Posts: 1,625 |
you got air pockets in your cooling system - definatelly.
burping the damn thing is a bitch - once I failed twice in a row, my mechanic did it for me. | | | | | 06-05-2008, 06:41 PM | #7 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: Central NJ Posts: 2,440 |

Our M Roadster is MUCH easier to bleed than the ti. Apparently, you don't know how to bleed them. | | | | |
