Finally some HEAT !

In the last few month's I noticed my 3.0 was always running cool. The temp barely moved out of the blue zone on cold days, and made it to the 1st mark on warm days. I threw a new themostat in this weekend and all is good. Hard to believe a defective T-stat with only 55k miles, but after owning many BMW's, I never trust the cooling system on these cars. While I was in there, I put in a new water pump (metal impeller), hoses, belts and expansion tank. What a PITA getting the fan off without the special tool !!!!
