4.4 facelift overheating query

Post by Woofer » Fri Apr 06, 2012 10:24 am

Just bought a lovely low mileage 4.4 sport with fbmwsh as an AUC and it drives beautifully , so much so that I'm planning a trip to Italy in it, i have read snippets about this model being prone to overheating (as would my missus if the car broke :( ) so are there any steps I can take to prevent any issue whilst not invalidating the BMW warranty ?

Cheers :driving:

I guess I must have over googled then but I though thermostats, water pumps and associated hoses were a weak spot .. :?
