I'm chasing an issue with my '03 X5 with the 3.0 six cylinder and it's looking like my secondary or auxiliary water/coolant pump may be dead. (Holding out hope that there's a slight chance of the Water Valve, up by the air filter/throttle bottle that may be the issue).

I've looked and looked for DIYs and videos and not finding much, does anyone have a link they can share?

A lot of the videos I did find make it sound like it's the same process for any ol' BMW with the 3.0 six cylinder, but, then comments in/under the video have people losin' their minds because they say it's a completely different, nightmare'ish process on an X5.

Thanks in advance.

Jay
