For the second video. I’m a bmw master tech 15 years. I’m going to try again. The hard lines you looked at. Following the outline of the battery pack and near the right rear of the vehicle. The mounting tab on the line cracks at the weld it leaks from there. There is a mounting bracket that need to be removed along with almost all the under body panels and a structural mount. It’s a very very tiny crack but you will see it. It only leaks when it get hots so a cold vehicle pressure test won’t show. And if you do a hot vehicle pressure test you don’t see it cause the pressure goes down any way since the vehicle is cooling down. My dealer actually put a motor in a i8 for the exact same reason.

I'm actually one of the techs that worked on the car. Replaced the oil filter housing, mechanical water pump, and one of the turbo aux coolant pumps. I tried bleeding this car for 3 days. That car needs an engine, the water pump and oil filter housing I took off were melted. The engine sounded fine so we tried to save it, there is a blockage in the engine itself somewhere and probably other places. I have nightmares of this car to this day. Eventually you will get oil pressure faults in the DME

​@@PhilOsGarage How can you prove that the previous owner sabotaged it when you can't even figure out what the problem is? The previous owner could also simply say that one of the other people that bought it at auction or the numerous repair shops screwed it up. How could you prove otherwise. Also, the car was most likely still under some bumper to bumper warranty so the previous owner wouldn't be responsible for any repairs anyway. When you buy something at auction, you probably buy it as is.

I used to run a factory that made radiators with plastic tanks for one of the Big 3 in the Midwest. We supplied 1 million radiators to our customer without a defect over about 7 years. We tested to 30PSI using air. Looking at that little segment of the radiator leaking, it looks like the tank wasn't crimped onto the core very well. I'd be curious if they forgot the rubber gasket that goes between the tank and core, or if it was twisted when installed. Since you are getting a new radiator, I'd be curious to see what the core looks like under the tank. We used to have alot of issues with the flux used to solder the aluminum cores to the end plates, getting into the seal channel, causing leaks. Just bend the tabs back with a screwdriver/pair of pliers/prybar until you can take the tank loose. You might have found a factory defect.

Just started watching this as it just hit my feed. I'm an MR2 owner, have been for 28 years, so I have some experience with mid engine cars. Not with BMW's so grain of salt thing. Typically, for MR2's, if the coolant reservoir is bubbling then chances are good either air in the system or head gasket failure. Coolant pressure test and bleed down test are the next go to. Again, I don't work on BMW's at all so still waiting to watch more videos to see if you all figure out what it actually was. Just posting this to see if I'm even close or not. Hope you figured it out so I'm rewarded by watching more videos LOL.

I was thinking about this the whole time: it's a closed circuit so open it at the "beginning" ( i.e. where the cold water leaves the radiator to the engine ) and feed cold water into it with a hose or something. If water doesn't come out of the radiator, there's a a clog somewhere. Changing the entry point for the water up the system will surely show up where it's at.

I remember my father had a similar problem on a company Ford escort that had a major tendency to overheat: root cause: the thermostat opens a coolant circuit to the radiator when the coolant gets warm. Thermostat worked perfectly but the outlet hole was not open out (either not drilled or bad moulding), so the thermostat opens correctly but the coolant could not be pumped into the radiator causing the overheating.

I would say it is obvious that there is a blockage of some kind. It might have been in the radiator.

So I used to work for a DAF dealership, they're a European truck brand and are owned by PACCAR, same family as Peterbilt and Kenworth. The MX engine had some terrible issues with o-ring failure, particularly the o-rings that sealed the oil cooler. We used TURCO Plaudit to get the oil out of the coolant system. I think its original purpose was to clean home central heating system pipes. We would do a couple of flushes with it following the o-ring and cooler repair, followed by refilling the system under vacuum with OAT coolant. This might be useful for anyone who has contamination issues in their coolant system, you may not be able to get the exact product but hopefully you can find something similar in your local area. I understand that oil fired central heating isn't as popular in the Americas as it is here in the UK, but maybe your local plumber could help direct you to a similar product.

You may have an "oil like" substance in the coolant system. I drive diesel dump trucks and one of them had an oil intercooler rupture that dumped a lot of oil in the coolant system. We flushed it out or so we thought and some stayed hidden in the nooks and crannies and began turning into a tar-like material after all the overheating the problem was that peices would regularrly break off and clog up the system to overheatthen maybe eventually melt and move back out of sight. We had to strip and replace almost the entire cooling system and eventually the engine was dismanted and the coolant channels were individually cleaned by hand. Major pain in the ass and to me the truck never seemed to ever have the same power again.

I once owned a 2007 SLK350 that threw a thermostat code. Since I was already at the dealer having the drivers side airbag replaced as part of a recall, I told them to go ahead and fix it. On that R171 engine the thermostat kind of like this i8 comes as an assembly with the housing included. The part was actually reasonable at around $135.00, but the labor was 3 hours. So when I picked it up the bill was almost $600.00 to change a thermostat.

I had an '85 Mazda RX7 (rotary engine) that had a chronic overheat problem. I tried thermostat, water pump and radiator and then took it to a dealer who couldn't figure it out either. It turned out to be a restricted exhaust from a melted catalytic converter because the air pump that blows air into the cat had failed. Rotary engines have a much higher exhaust temperature so this may not be relevant to the BMW. Just relating my experience.

@@peterj5751 Had a full blockage once - there was no antifreeze in the coolant, and the water was frozen solidly. The thermometer didn't indicate any problems. Of course, with no water circulation, it just measures the temperature of an ice block. The first sign of trouble was that the fan/water pump/generator belt failed (since the water pump was locked, of course). The car was am E21 316 (note the absence of the "i"). The M10 engine survived (needed a new head gasket, though).

@@bmwspeedman the problem is that in modern dealership shops, they no longer want to waste time with true diagnostics. The advent of the ECU/PCM made old school diagnostics go away. Now they only rely on their computers and what it says goes. Ironically, BMW is notorious for throwing codes. A leaking vacuum line or intake fan will throw misfire codes or o2/cat codes. The car runs fine otherwise. But nowadays the techs (mechanics, they no longer call themselves that) swear by the scanner and the computer (stuff like alldata). The digital FSMs basically will say "replace engine" if you go through a diagnostic tree and yield no results. Same for the transmission. In the case of this car, there is a possibility that the head is warped but not mixing with the oil. There is a chance a head gasket leaks near an exhaust port and no other part of the engine is compromised but the exhaust smoke feels damp and it overheats since the exhaust fumes are heating up the water. Keep in mind as the sabatoge idea gets explored.

This definitely a head scratcher. Me when I hear the crackling in the water system that means air is in the system. Removing the thermostat and it is still getting hot means that it has a flow issue or a head gasket, and being as you have checked the oil and it good, then means a water flow issue. The radiator blowing going pop maybe part of a flow issue, maybe, I'm not a great fan of electric water pumps, just another thing to go wrong and in my opinion not needed. I will now try and find part two of this video to see how it carries on. Most interesting.
