I own a 1984 318i and was on the way to the mechanic for a starter issue. My heat has worked before with the odd noise here and there but A/C never worked. When the fan was turned to the lowest speed, while I was driving, coolant scented steam started blowing through the vents very fast, almost...

My 88 BMW M5 has (re) started blowing hot air out of the fresh air vents once the car has been running 15 minutes or so. This is especially true after the car has been started, driven, parked and restarted. It did this about 6 months ago and at the recommendation of a mechanic, I had the heater...

2013 335IS Vert, when driving with AC off and temp set at 60, outside air temp about 70, the air out of the vents feels uncomfortably warm. Is this normal? I didn't try the AC then off for a minute. 3 weeks left on BMW warranty!

Hey looking for some direction on solving issues with heat in my 2007 BMW 328xi Let's start at the beginning. My car started overheating on longer drives in the summer. I replaced the thermostat but the problem persisted. I started to think I had a blown head gasket and put "blue devil...

I just bought a 435i Gran Coupe M-Sport. Looking more closely at the car, I notice that the slots in the sides of the bumpers as well as the fender vents are actually open to the front wheel wells (see attached image) . I had assumed they were just decorative. I imagine this is a nod to...

Hi Everyone, I have a 2006 530XI which has a mileage of 82K at this time. It has been maintained well with up to date on all maintenance issues. Since the last two years, I have been noticing that the car won't heat up or cool instantly like a new car or a car with that much mileage usually...

Hi All, I seem to be having an issue with the centre dashboard heater vent on my car. I've read many threads where people have experienced only hot or cold air from this vent, due to air in the coolant or a valve failure, however my problem is slightly different. My blower fan functions...

Hello all, I have an 03 330ci with no air flow. I hear the fan motor running but there is no air in any of the vents. Oddly enough though, when I turn on the defroster I do feel the air on the windshield. I have done lots of research so I either need a new blower motor fan or a new FSU (final...

I have noticed now that only half of the A/C is working on my car, a 2002 325CI. when I turn my A/C on the only vents that blow cold air are the far left and the far right vents, but the vents in the middle of the car, above the console blow nothing, but hot air. I tried adding 134a to my car...

Hello everybody, I own an 1991 BMW E34 520i and I have a problem :mad:. The problem is that whatever temperature I set on the gauges, I always get only warm/hot air coming out of the vents in the windshield and foot area and cold air in the dasboard and door vents. My heating radiator was...

A few problems with my 2003 325i: 1. The wiper fluid basin has fluid in it, but the pump will not dispense any on the windshield. Do I have to replace it? 2. Hazard light button and Central Locking button on the center console have both collapsed. They cannot be pressed or lifted. Is there any...

If so, this is a common problem that BMW needs to address in BMW X5 35d (E70) and other diesels. It is an EGR cooler or EGR Valve issue leaking exhaust in the engine compartment and blowing exhaust through the vents. File a complaint here to push for a recall. it takes 30 seconds. just have...

I have 528i with the standard heat/ac system. It has 2 vents in the back. When I turn on the heat, I've noticed that it blows hot hair from the front 4 vents, however, it only blows cold air from the back vents. There have been times it blows luke warm air (never hot like the front vents)...

Hi. I smell fumes through my vents. It smell like oil drips burning off of a heat source such as a hot motor or exhaust pipe. I smell it while running the heat in my car. Recently, I've had the cylinder and valve gaskets replaced leading me to believe the job wasn't done correctly. Ive...

Hi All I have a problem with the front air vents. I have cold air coming through the rear vents but no air what so ever through the front ones. Anyone else experienced this problem??? Thanks

When I have just the mid vents turned on, my AC blows out both hot and cold air. But when I have the floor on as well as the mid vents, the floor blows out hot air, while the mid vents blow out cold air. I recharged my AC and everything, with no change at all. I'm wondering if this could be some...
