Car keeps on heating up
Usually my car stays around 180-100f driving normally, but these past few weeks, my car seems to overheat allt. Like it went over 210f mark and stays around 220f-230f while on a normal drive. What could this be? Checked my fluid level and it was max. I need help before i have tp make a decision to buy a csf radiator and oil cooler

Depending on which coolant you have the BMW fluid is normally full strength and needs to be diluted with distilled water. 50/50 is standard the mix to run.

You need to dilute it with distilled water - It's not supposed to be straight coolant, and likely your overheating issue. Read the back of the bottle but roughly 50/50 coolant to water.
