this poll would work better if you could account for multiple cars and change your answer.
wife's finally went.
A. 06 325xi 6 speed
B. 98,000 miles
C. $531 for an overnight waterpump/tstat/bolts/coolant kit
D. I'll be replacing it, I took off the underpanels last night. doesn't look too difficult.
E. No damage, I did limp it home. temp stabilized at a rather high temp, but not really that much higher than the normal op. temp of an N52.
F. Definitely never tracked
I was planning on changing the DME to report the internal errors for the water pump as a SES light, but it failed the week before I was going to do that. So, I won't really know if that would have given us any more of a warning than basically failing suddenly. it's actually not that bothersome to me that the pump dies, it's more the mode of failure where it just stops working with zero warning. I'll be disassembling the pump as I'm curious to what fails. I've always wanted to know if they could be rebuilt.
