650 Dakar overheating
I am on a trip from Norway to New Zealand. Got to India where there is no BMW service.
A week ago I started getting overheating light signals. Checked the water, cleaned the mud off the front ( pakistani mud) and blew the dirt out of the radiator. Despite that it is slowly getting worse. Now it comes on at 40k. I can slip and rev to 3000+ revs and it goes out for a while.
I saw mention of the drain hole on the left (port)side of the motor which a month earlier started dripping on start up especially ( I was told it was the Cat Converter warming up) and can indicate a failing pump (?).
The pump etc was replaced by the BMW dealer in Tunbridge Wells two months ago.
If I can not resolve I guess it means abandon India, fly to Bangkok for repairs which would be a bugger.
