over heating cab

[ash123]

this morning my 320i auto started over heating,i was getting water running out of the lower front wing/passenger footwell area i thought it was the heater matrix so i took the 2 pipes off and conected them togetherbut its still the same any one got any ideas

[mrLEE30]

did you bleed the system after you have cancelled the heater matrix?

what pipies did you connect together?

is it still leaking?

i conected the 2 pipes going through the bulkhead,it seams to have stoped leaking now and no i have not bleed it beacase i couldnt find a bleed screw on the rad how else can i blead it

you can bleed it by opening the nut on the thermostat housing placed in the middle of the radiator,its got 2 hoses connected to it,i think its a 8ml bolt.

right ive had another look at it and it seems when the engine is running 2 out of the 3 pipes on the thermostat housing are getting warm the one which goes to the bottom of the radiater remains cold could it be the therostat
