hi just brought a 325i
had a few problems with it all ready
found a new radiator changed it thought everything was good then drove down the road and found the fan belt had snapped
oh bugger!
at the same time noticed that a small pipe at the top of the expansion tank had broke. (not the plastic one from the radiator)
had a look where it went but couldn't find it.
any ideas??

speedo doesn't work either will get round to checking the wiring sometime this week
also when i fill up on the red it only costs 35quid is my petrol guage miles out aswell.
