N62 cooling pipe o-ring sizes

Hey guys!


So last week I changed out the water pump in the old X5 and at the time I saw all of the o-rings within the cooling pipes and thought " Should I change then out or just get the job done " ....



Obviously I made the wrong decision and need to go back and change them. Would anyone happen to know the sizes for the the 4 hoses that connect to the water pump on my N62 for the X5?


I am sure this has been covered in the past, but I searched for it and couldn't find it.



Thanks guys

Sadly BMW doesn't consider them an individual part so you can't look it up on real oem. Somebody has to extract and measure. I tried to find one locally the only luck I had was with a kit that had a bunch of sizes and then I found an o-ring fit the upper hose.

Hopefully somebody has an engine apart and a digital calipers.

Ask tmax445 as I think he's still in the stage of angry wife over the mess in the shop stage.

So I dug into it today and it turned out to be the o'ring on the temp sensor that is part of the pass. side pipe that leads to the radiator... I used a #31 o-ring from the local hardware store and I am back up and running with no leaks for under $1

I wrapped mine with Teflon and it's been fine for 15 months or so. I bought a 10-pack of the 8x14x4 o-rings to replace it properly then promptly lost them.
