simon m8 thats very weird , but basicly my head gasket on my 325i sport recently went round number 6 i had similar symptomz was slightly using water oil n water had mixed but dipper still looked preety normal after finding out from one of my good friends in bmw i decided to strip it down and well when u take it apart u soon realise the problems! but sometimes can be very hard to tell with it ready built up!
do you have any white smoke coming from the exhaust? and wat colour are the spark plugs ?? itll use coolent no doubt mine started with a v tiny missfire for like 3 to 5 seconds on start up belive it or not...
as it stands i hope its not your head m8 as to do it properly end s up costing a small fortune! i hope some of that infos helped m8 if you need anymore im sure i can help just give me a pm.
