Hi, my 98 bmw 528 sometimes over heat, the gauge will run to red especially in parking, and when I check the fluid and fan they all run ok but I can't get warm air when this happens, it doesn't happen all the time though, do anybody knows if this is thermostart or water pump, thanks lot in advance.

Its not the thermostat or the water pump mate, I think its the fan clutch. Part number 11-52-7-505-302
