Hey cheers for the feed back I'll try all the above and update how I get on,hopefully for the better.

Hi all, 535i 1987 beema, when im idiling in traffic or going slow the car overheats to the point where it starts struggling to go anywhere...changed the thermostat and water pump, got a head gasket checked-good but still no luck, also the brakes start sticking once it overheats, when I leave for awhile goes back to normal

So my car radiator has decided to use all the water up & I'm unsure of where it's going too?Was going fine one day then next thing we could smell like a fishy smell(apparently was the collant)pulled over there was abit of a collant leak on the road,radiator was just about empty & now the car starts ok but the radiator constantly needs to be filled up just to even drive up the driveway.Anyone know what the problem could be or a good place to take it in Sth Auckland to be fixed or diagnosed please,please, please!!
