Engine Cooling problem
1997 BMW 740 4 cyl Automatic

its had a new radiator, new water pump new viscosity fan, new thermastat. Each time its had something new fitted it runs perfectly for a few days, that is less than 150 miles over those few days then its starts blowing water out definately under considerable pressure of the radiator cap. However today less than a 8 mile journey steam is coming out of the top corners of the radiator, that is where it is clipped to the body. Help Please Advise

Hello an thanks for donating

Have you had the cooling system flushed out? This is sometimes caused by a clog in the system. Also, make sure the radiator cap is in good condition and is sealing properly.
