Parts info (acquiring parts for a Radiator)
Hey guys,
Sooooo, I found out that I have a leak from the lower connection on my radiator, not the one with the sensor, the one below it. I did a bunch of searching and didn't come up with anything. So went to the dealer and asked for a breakdown of parts needed.
Apparently the radiator on a 2006 530i has been upgraded to a version that does not have the leaking issue.
NEW PART numbers: (prices are from the dealer I went to)
-------------------------------
RADIATOR - 17-11-7-519-209 ($575.88)
COMPENSATOR -- 17-11-7-520-335 (9.59)
WATER HOSE, INLET -- 11-53-7-519-494 ($63.36)
COOLANT -- 82-14-1-467-704 ($32.48)
Anyone know where I can go to get a good deal on these parts in the Southern California area.
Apparently, once these parts are installed the leaking issue will be resolved
The bottom right inlet is where it is leaking. BMW says I need to replace the parts above. Does anyone else have a solution for this? It's leaking right at the connection to the radiator...
Side Note: I need some other parts as well so any info on a reputable place to pick up parts would be greatly appreciated!

This is where I go to get my OEM parts and it's much cheaper compared to dealers, of course. Free ship on any orders $65 USD and really fast too. I've ordered things on Friday and already at my door Monday eve. I never waited more than 3 working days for my parts to arrive. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed.
