A BMW engine's operating temperature Testament rise as you guide. Everyone engine has its own solo cooling process, designed to convert the engine temperature so the motorcar does not overheat. Whether a Element of your cooling action fails, the engine is at risk of suffering permanent damage.
Engine Temperature Gauge
The engine temperature gauge is located in your BMW's instrument panel; it provides information about the engine's current operating temperature. It is marked by a thermometer symbol, and uses a needle to illustrate the vehicle's engine-temperature level. If the needle moves beyond the half-way mark on the gauge, your engine is beginning to overheat.
Water Pump Failure
Your BMW's water pump is an integral part of the cooling system. It is powered by a pulley and belt system. Open your BMW's hood and examine the belts that sit at the front of the engine. If the engine is not receiving enough coolant, it will overheat. If the coolant-warning-light is illuminated in your instrument panel, your engine is likely going to overheat soon. Refill the coolant reservoir in your engine to restore the factory coolant level.
If any of these belts have snapped or are missing, your engine is likely overheating. Its cooling system is not receiving a steady flow of coolant.
