So I was lucky 😀 I bought the original again. I also changed the water pump as a precaution. Everything on that car is made of plastic, it cracks like a cookie 😊 Otherwise, I love the carName:  IMG_9920.jpg

My OFH is leaking, wondering If it is easy enough to do myself or if should I take the hit and bring it to the dealer who is going to charge me around 3K$ to fix it. I am pretty confident at doing it myself just didn't know if there was anything I should worry about or if it's a pretty straightforward job.

it is not completely simple. I worked on it over the weekend, but I also changed other parts. But paying $3000 is a lot. I followed the instructions in ISTA. I am sorry for my English

Has anyone had severe oil consumption as a symptom of this?

I.e. a 'quart every500mi' severe.

So, we had this same problem on the wife's 2018 630gt last week at 130,000kms. Was fine one minute, then blew coolant everywhere.

Looks exactly like others, with a chunk of the crap plastic missing.

Nobody here has mentioned any issues after replacement? What bothers the fuck out of me is that there's a large lump of plastic now residing somewhere on the system....
