Needed Advice 700 1991

posted by  someone claiming to be Larry on  Wed Jan 28 05:12 CST 2004 [RELATED]

I have a 1990 760 Turbo. The radiator gave out at about 180k (upper nipple broke off, but fortunately no engine damage.)The plastic deteriorates and cracks or crumbles. Following advice from this forum, I also replaced the heater valve. It's also plastic, and basically crumbled to bits when I went to remove it.

Some where in about the same milage range as your car, my oil consumption went up a lot. The breather systerm was clogged. Read the FAQ to clean it out, including the seperator on the block.My oil consumption went back to normal.
