BMW Coolant is not green brother, it is blue. I think you need do this T-Stat repair and while there check cooling system hoses, expansion tank and water pump. If you say you did a PPI at a local indie in BK, I suggest not going back to this local indie because he clearly missed this cooling system possible failure.
