Description of the problem	My x5 has been a fairly reliable vehicle with some quirkiness along the way. I had a "crossover pipe" to start leaking coolant. The thing to look for is if you open your hood, and look in the center of the engine (from the front), there is a small hole. Coolant will collect and pour out of that hole onto the ground. The fix through bmw is anywhere from $9000-$10,000. 00; if you are going to allow bmw to replace the part and labor charges with some parts. What happens is over time the seals go back in this part, and the only way to get to it is to open your entire engine, to replace the pipe. I went to a local car shop that specializes in foreign vehicle repair named kelly moss motor sports near madison wisconsin, and they were able to do this job for under $3000. 00. They did fantastic work, and my vehicle has not leaked since! This part will eventually go bad, especially if you live in a climate with constant hot temps or extreme weather that goes from hot to cold (both destroy the rubber gaskets in this pipe). I am attaching a link for those who want to see what the pipe looks like. Https://www. Agacoolantpipe. Com/product/n62-coolant-pipe.
