Water pump failures are a common occurrence on high mileage engines. A water pump failure is never a convenient experience and it usually leaves you stranded where you don't want to be stranded. We recommend replacing your BMW's water pump every 60,000 miles as a regular service to ensure that you are never stranded anywhere.
FCP also suggests ordering:
11537830709 - Water Pipe O-ring (2 required)
11531318402 - Thermostat O-Ring (1 required)
11537830712 - Water pump o-ring (1 required)
11517831099 - Water Pump Gasket (1 required)
Your vehicles engine water pump is responsible for keeping coolant flowing through the engine. As water pumps get old the internal bearing can go bad causing noise and a coolant leak. A good indicator that your water pump is failing is if you see coolant leaking through the water pump "weep hole".
Engine Water Pump Failure Symptoms- Coolant leak through weep hole
- Play at water pump pulley shaft indicating a bad bearing
- Squeaking noise coming from pump at idle
- Overheating conditions
- Low coolant light on instrument cluster indicating a cooling system leak
About Genuine BMW
The original parts used by BMW to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine BMW” brand. When ordering a Genuine BMW part you are guaranteed to get the same part that you would pick up from your local dealerships part department. Genuine BMW parts have been built to BMW’s stringent standards and are the same quality of the original parts used to build your Ultimate Driving Machine.
You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your BMW are not necessarily manufactured by BMW. No cause for concern, as BMW designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for BMW for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine BMW parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a BMW logo.
Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
