Need some help troubleshooting and planning maintenance
Car is an 07 e90 335i, auto, 111k miles.
OFHG, power steering pump, brake fluid, coolant, coils, changed at 80k miles, plugs changed 105k miles. Has been burning 1qt of oil every 2 months or so, nothing drastic. Car has been smelling "hot" after runs, but no lights. Coolant level is at minimum, and from what I could tell looked a little cloudy. Noticed some white smoke today from exhaust, nothing major but definitely there even after condensation burned off. Engine runs quite good, especially considering its FBO. Current issues: Cloudy, low coolant Oil pan gasket leaking Thinking I'm going to flush coolant out and fill with just distilled water to see if it's mixing with the oil, will be easier to tell this way. Or should I just park it and fix the OPG and change WP/TStat all at once? Also wanting to change the valve cover just because. Thankfully this isn't my DD so I have some time. Also do have all the tools and a good workspace, just no engine hoist. |
