Paradoxial. I miss him. He had a really nice 35i, and if I recall, he got T-boned and the car totaled. |

And after the dealer diagnosed the first 2 with a pressure test, when the last one started leaking coolant I just knew, so I bought a tester for myself and sure enough, it wouldn't hold @ 12-13psi for more than 15 minutes. Most of the other coolant parts; hoses, water pump, and overflow reservoir had been replaced recently so I knew it had to be the rad again. It can be hard to see but I've always noticed dried coolant along the bottom, and sides of the radiator where the metal and plastic meet (and separate ) and on top of the splash shield. This is where every single one of mine failed. But no problems since! I did a CSF intercooler at the same time and the improvement is incredible. Edit: (I realized the second question was directed @Sha-Ka, but thought I'd leave my input here anyway)

Just thought I would add my two cents here. I was trying to find another issue and came across this thread. We are on our 5th radiator. It starts to leak on a seam on the driver side every time. I use FCP euro and just get a free replacement. BUT YES...Very annoying.

'13 35i. Replaced expansion tank 3 years ago and it just started leaking again (spraying coolant from the bottom). Thankfully my shop offers 3 yrs/36k mile warranty for the tank. While having that replaced, he also noticed a small leak from the radiator where it connects to the vent hose and upper radiator hose. Current mileage is at 100,4xx and first time tank was replaced was 70K.
I was about to just go with OEM till I came across the CSF radiators, specifically P/N 7046. Everywhere I saw on the web do not list it as it fitting our cars except from CSF's website. I'll update once it arrives and is installed next week. |

Repair shop is replacing for free, but using another OEM radiator. I may have him do it and then during the holidays, replace with an all aluminum one and keep the OEM as a spare or sell. Replacing these radiators really sucks |

So I was coding/ tuning one of my other BMWs and noticed that in one of the tunes... there was a code to adjust the RPM of the water pump to push more water thru cooling system...
Could the N55 water pump speed be adjusted to perhaps a lower speed to keep the coolant system from building up top much pressure? |

Seems like something to order preventatively!
Question.....I saw a review comment mentioning that it takes longer for the oil temp to get to where it wants as well as longer to heat the cabin in cold weather. For those that made the switch to CSF, have you noticed these things?

So far everythings good. Only issue I had was when temps was around 20ish degrees, I had a code pop up and go away for a stuck open thermostat (it only happened when my wife drove the car but she never mentioned any issues). Also, running the heater in the cold drops the coolant temp drastically. My temps are usually around 230 f with heater off and with heater on, it drops to around 170 f.
