Water Pump

munu · 09-21-2015, 08:46 AM

Finally my water pump gave up (94K miles). Got the temperature sign last night in orange followed by Red in few second. Thanks to this forum, I have trained my wife to stop and pull over as soon as this symbol shows up.

I am taking it to dealer today and my Route 66 warranty is going to take care of it. They pay for rental car based on the labor hours. Basically 1 day rental for 4 hour labor. Anybody knows how much labor hour BMW charges for this work. I was not sure if it takes 1-2 hours for which I can wait or it is longer then that.

Thanks

It's more than 1 or 2 hours, don't quote me but I think it is 4 hours labor. Had the same job done last fall.

Mine was 4 hours at my indy. xDrive takes longer though too.

You could always call the dealer and ask them
