Sounds like bad BMW gaskets I've seen. I would treat those symptoms like those of a heart patient, go to emergency room first.


My '86 535i started to run badly yesterday. I checked the oil and found a white deposite in the middle of the stick, and on the top of the fill cap. I presume this is coolant in the oil? Help! I'm calling the tow truck on Wednesday>
