Funny thing is, I've never seen puddles of coolant due to unbroken-in shaft seals under all the new BMWs at the dealers.

The China made Meyle pump I got 1.5yrs ago began leaking 1yr after installing. Sent back to BavAuto for a full refund toward GENUINE BMW pump (Made in Italy).

Nothing but Genuine BMW going forward.
Okay I was just surprised that the genuine water pump from BMW is a remanufactured unit. Not new
