where does the water from the radiator go on my bmw?
after hitting a deer my radiator doesn't seem to hold water i have checked the cylinder head and there is no water coming from the tail pipe. where could it be going? It is a BMW 316i compac 1997
I would imagine the leak will be somewhere close to the rad, if you hit the deer head on!! It will probably only leak when the engine is hot, and the water is under pressure. I'd run the car up hot then start looking around the front end for leaks. Is there visible damage on the rad? It may be punctured, and the water running down the finns, where you wont see it very well
