I blew the coolant line off of my e60 535xi a year ago, that repair bill was nasty. In hindsight I should have coughed up more money and had the turbos replaced too. The major part of the cost was the labor to get to the turbos on the awd models, lowering the subframe and whatnot. Still love my car, plan to drive it forever! 175,000 miles strong!!

Correct. And mine's a 535xi. I did this same job working around a driveshaft. No fun. The process was: turbos out, upper coolant and oil lines connected to the block BEFORE reinstalling the turbos, then all the remaining connections to the turbos. It's very tedious

@greebj 6 ай бұрын

Ask yourself, are BMW famous for making turbo 4 pots? N20 has all the usual reliability issues of the era, plus timing chain, without really being worth it. If you are set on one... watch for stupid long oil service intervals, that has rekt pretty much every BMW model in the last 20 years, and cheap models were rarely owned by people willing to ignore 20k,25k,30k oil change indicator stupidity, and pay for more frequent servicing
