Good Luck. If you are an automotive DIYer, get a copy of the Bentley E39 manual and a good scan tool. If not, find a good mechanic who knows BMWs.
First up, replace the VANOS seals. Second, look for a date sticker on the radiator. If it's the same as the date of manufacture, get ready to overhaul it.
