Hey, no problem, always happy to help! So, I paid €170 to repair the damage to the wiring harness. You know, since then the malfunction of the coolant thermostat has been fixed and my X3 is running like clockwork again! Yes, it's true, the old speedsters can sometimes really cause surprises, but so far nothing else has been wrong. Keep your fingers crossed that your X5 will be just as uncomplicated!

Thank you very much for your quick and helpful reply. 170 actually sounds quite fair, that's what I would have expected. Good to know that your X3 is running well after the repair. I'll take mine straight to the garage and hope it works without any surprises. Your advice was very helpful! Thanks again and I hope your X3 continues to run well!

Hey buddy, had a similar problem with my 2015 BMW X3 at the garage the other day. The overheating indicator and the check engine light came on almost at the same time. It was actually the coolant thermostat, but it was also about replacing the coolant sensor. It was quite stressful, but definitely no reason to panic. Try reading out the fault memory, maybe that will clarify things. Hope that helps!
