I recently bought a 2003 325i with 75k miles on it. I have replaced the expansion tank, pullies, water pump and flushed the coolant. I did this 3 months ago and yesterday i had to put a quart of coolant again to top it up.
When i drive the car around for lets say 30 min and then park it. The temperature needle just stays in the middle even after two hours. What is confusing me that i have done the OBI test and the coolant temperature has not exceeded 94C.
But i still think the car is overheating as it takes a very long time to cool down and even a foot from the front grill you can feel heat. The other thing is that you can also feel heat in the foot area under the dash on each side of the front seats.
Feel free to tell me i am paranoid :-)
