So I went back to Vegas over the weekend. I was on the way to Canes to get lunch after dropping off my stuffs. I noticed a puff of steam and went straight to a 7-11 gas station in Warm Springs & Buffalo. The ZHP decided to spill its guts....coolant on the lot......It was cold....it was windy. Had to call AAA tow and bring back to home and park in street. No shops open. But I did notice that the pump was cocked.....No. I do not have my tools or anything.
I am thankful that the ZHP held up and did not decide to spill its guts on the road to Vegas (Desert).
Following day, had the ZHP towed again to Southwest Bimmers (they are also members of the BIMRS.org). The shop was fantastic. They were able to accommodate my ZHP and got to work.
After a days work....I have a new Pump, Thermostat, Upper and Lower hose, Sensor. This situation was my bad. When I did the whole coolant system replacement, I left out the pump. Now I guess, the original pump decided to bite off my ass......at 154K miles.
So that's my story. Now, I'm back in San Diego.
