Waterpump replacement
What is your question?
My 2004 BMW X3 never registered that it overheated ever! I had a water light come on. Filled it with coolant and saw the coolant coming out in the middle of engine out the bottom. Got onto this site and saw that this was commmon for my car and went to a German auto repair and told them I suspected waterpump. Sure enough I was right, or all of you were right... Anyhow, this guy is trying to tell me that he won't know the extent of the damage of the overheat till the waterpump is fixed. My car never overheated once according to the gages. He tells me that gage only registers coolant and since there wasn't any in the car there was nothing to register so the car could of been overheating and I would have never known it??? Does that sound right? The minute that water light came on we put coolant in it within 10 minutes. Also I am told the belts were completely saturated not frayed or cracked just wet and need to be changed. Does this all sound right?
