Water pump OEM Toyota or OEM BMW
Reviews
I’m on year 3 of a 2020 M240ix and it has cost me nothing besides regular maintenance and premium fuel. Now I expect that to change soonish, as at my last oil change I was told my water pump has a very slow leak and, at some point, will need to be replaced to the tune of $2k.
Pros: love the car
Cons: water pump leak
Vehicle:
BMW

A 525tds was my first car. Only ever had two problems with it. Heater fuse kept blowing- turned out the previous owners install of the head unit used eletrical tape which over time lead to a cable shorting out on the din cage. Water pump died - oem impeller was plastic. The replacement was metal
Pros: reliable, metal impeller replacement
Cons: heater fuse blowing, plastic impeller

Engine water pump is leaking coolant. The pulley and drive belt are slinging the coolant onto other components. Highly recommend to replace with factory parts.

Buy the M340i new and prepay your services. Great on gas but insurances and tires have been expensive. Water pump blew at 48k.

The water pump had a micro leak that would spray coolant on the air box. Never enough to make me want to go through the trouble of replacing it.
Cons: micro leak, coolant top-up
