A little bump here....
Over the past few weeks, I've noticed that the radiator fan in our 2010 35d has been running a maximum speed quite often, even at cold start up. Mostly it has been annoying (it is quite loud, even in the SAV), so I figured it was a faulty sensor or something and would get it checked out at some point. But lately, the fan is running at maximum speed more and more, so I decided to check out the coolant level. I've had no warnings on the iDrive about overheating, nor any "coolant low" warnings, but when I opened the overflow tank, it wasn't even close to the "min" level! I have not noticed any spots on the driveway from coolant. I have noticed a slightly sweet smell with the exhaust at times, but attributed that to the DEF. I would actually say the smell is more like "clean" smelling. I have not noticed any white smoke, but maybe the diesel's exhaust system is preventing it appearing. I sure hope that the coolant isn't leaking past the head gasket and getting burned up. I guess it would be worse if it was leaking into the oil sump.... Anyway, I'll be calling the BMW dealer tomorrow to see about getting it in for a check up. Currently has about 13,000 miles on it....
