Oh no a leak!

Post by Timh » Wed Apr 13, 2011 10:06 pm

Hi guys

My x5 has sprung a leak on the coolent system....

I think it's coming from the water pump on the engine...it's defo not the radiator.
The check control has come up asking me to check level...and it was low. Topped up and it's ok at the moment but it's still dripping (not that bad but defo leaking)

Will the repair be covered by the BMW auc warranty??

Cheers

Tim

Hi Tim,
That's what the auc warrantee is for.
Water leaks can be death to your engine, going from a drip to total water loss (wrecked engine) in no time at all.
Get it into the dealer asap and I would be wary of using it in the meantime.
