528e overheating   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #5084 of 5348 |
I have a 528e which still overheats after doing the following:

Replaced head gasket and checked flatness of head and block.
Flushing radiator and block.
Removing thermostat, testing, then replacing with new.
Bypassing fan thermostatic switches to force fan to run at high speed
full time.
New water pump.
Bled all air out of cooling system.
No leaks.

Any suggestions?

Many thanks to the group.

sometimes you need to jack up the drivers side part of the car and bleed it since air can be trapped in that point of the system, what about the clutch fan?...
