If your car is overheating it means that there is a leak in the coolant system somewhere. A common problem with a car this age is the in car heater core. Also the auxillary cooling fan may not be working. The first thing to do is a pressure test on the cooling system to determine where the leak is, and proceed from there.

Car battery went dead and need to find out how to enter code for 1989 BMW car stereo

go to your dealership and give them the make, model, and year of your car. next give the the serial number of the radio( should be in the glove box on a label. explain to the the problem, and they should be able to look up the 5 digit code for you(most dealerships do this for free). when you go to enter the code, the radio must be powered up for one hour before entering the code(in case of theft). I hope this helps you

I have a 1989 BMW 325i and it has been overheating so I replaced the thermostat, the housing, cover and the sensors. BUT it it is still overheating. What should I do now??

the problem is in your dash. you are going to have to replace the battery in the instrument panel.
these will control the opening and closing of your thermostat. i bet that you are having issues with your tach and possibly fuel consumption. once you do this you are set.
