Imola Breaks Down | E46 M3 Cooling System Refresh | Bav DIY

The Imola red M3 left Felix stranded on the highway the other night with a crazy amount of smoke in the engine bay, due to what we find out in the video was caused by a water pump failure. We thought this would be a good opportunity to get some other cooling system components replaced and also record a DIY.
