hi there guys,

just wondering if a 316 and 318 share the same radiator?

my 318i is having overheating issues, ive been fairly thorough and am working through by process of elimination.

I have flushed and bled the system
I have replaced with a second hand rad from scrappy
new viscous coupling
new thermostat
checked all hoses

i am thinking the second hand rad could be dodgy and a mate has an off the road 316, so i was wondering if i could borrow his rad as they share the m40 engine.

what you reckon?
