Thanks guys.
My daughter blew a heater hose and had to get it taken to a local shop. $300 for the hose. Wanted to then charge me another $400 for the other hoses and the thermostat. I'll fess up and say I should have replaced all the hoses when I got it but I assumed the prior owner did because he kept such great care. Live and learn. I'll take care of the other hoses and thermo myself when she comes home.
Something good came out of it though. I might have found another. A1997 528i. I'll hear more about it in a few hours and will let ya know.
Cheers,
Vince
