E90 93,000 Water Pump/Stat took a dump

EASTCOASTNINJA · 04-29-2012, 01:17 AM

Alright so no sh*t there i was knee deep in hand grenades driving down to Destin, Florida from Fort Bragg, North Carolina. It was 83 degrees outside and i was about 50 miles from Savannah GA. And yea yellow temp goes on then red temp light goes on. Yes i got stranded on the side of I-95. Long story shot and 2 tow straps $140 in gas and $155 in improper towing ticket and 24 hours later i made it home.

anyone know of any of parts on E90,92 that take a straight dump? besides HPFP

EASTCOASTNINJA · 04-29-2012, 02:51 AM

Yea now that I think of it and read other peoples pumps going out at 60ish K I don't think it's that bad but!! I need to find out if it's under my certified pre Owened warranty. Anyone know about this?

B_euro335 · 04-29-2012, 02:57 AM

Should be covered under CPO. If you had CPO you could have had BMW tow it too...

EASTCOASTNINJA · 04-29-2012, 03:03 AM

I just bought the car from Rick Hendricks auto group in NC, I got it January 5th and now my WP is dead. U guys think I'm still under Certifed pre Owened warranty?

VTECaddict · 04-29-2012, 03:10 AM

If it's actual BMW CPO then you are good for 7yr/100k.

If it was some dealer/aftermarket warranty then who knows. Check your paperwork.

EASTCOASTNINJA · 04-29-2012, 03:17 AM

It was brought down from the BMW of Rick Hendricks up by chappell hill nc

VTECaddict · 04-29-2012, 03:18 AM

You should be good then

Does the name Plunk mean anything to you?

I was in 1-505 at Bragg. Had a friend go to Destin for RTB.

Hisam135i · 04-29-2012, 04:17 PM

Mine failed at 71k and yes it is covered under CPO

VTECaddict · 04-29-2012, 04:18 PM

yea gay ass Rick Hendricks toyota the dealership that brought me the car from Rick Hendricks BMW at charllotte say that my car only had 30 day warranty. Anyone ever heard such horse shit? how is it possible that a car that i buy from a big dealer only gives me 30 day warranty?

AKI335I · 04-29-2012, 09:48 PM

EASTCOASTNINJA · 04-29-2012, 09:49 PM

Happens to all.

MarcoE93 · 04-29-2012, 10:45 PM

Mine died at 103xxx km. I don't know if it has ever been changed before. I don't think it was due the fact that my water pump and thermostat where aluminum and the ones I got from the dealer were plastic
