My water pump went out at 155k, 2006 BMW 325i auto
I’m at 180k, holding strong
My 330i started throwing codes around 135k. Replaced it for peace of mind and it turned out to be the original. I’ve heard somewhere that the water pump used in the 2006 325 and 330i is a bit different and lasts longer
It’s still baffles me how BMW can’t get a quality water pump on its vehicles.
I have a 2018 A7 and I had to replace the water pump (which apparently is pretty standard). The dealership charged me $1450 in an affluent Philly suburb for what that\u2019s worth.
My s5 water pump failed at 300 miles, car wound up lemon’d.
Since Audi clearly makes water pumps on presumably a $50 3d printer, would it make any sense at all to buy an upgraded one, metal or whatever won’t do whatever oem ones love to, and preemptively change out ?
I had mine done on my 2018 S4 from an Audi dealer in PA. Cost me $3,928 total. They replaced the water pump and hoses, coolant regulating valve, vacuum control valves and lines, and the serpentine valve. The water pump is what failed and took everything else with it.
This has happened to my husband. He drives 2021 m340i with 17k miles. Water pump exploded last night.
Audi doesn't have the best record with water pumps and housings. On the 8V S3, the pump would start to leak, but it would drip onto the splash guard and never make it to the ground. The only signs were coolant smell and frequently needing to top off the coolant.
