It is all TRUE!
Many state that this Coolant Return Line is susceptible to breaking well before 75K.
https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/par...&q=17128570061 So I listened and purchased the part but was in NO hurry to replace. So now at 65K Miles I have had a replacement line for some time. As I started to remove the line and with little to no force it broke off in my hand. Lessoned Learned: I was damn lucky. Change your line now. Took all of 5min to replace and although I did recirculate the coolant following the applicable procedure -- I lost very little fluid (maybe an ounce) and really did not need to do so.

N55
2015 MY -- Broke at 65K on replacement.
Highly recommend replacement -- actually purchased mine at the dealer. Price was lower than on-line. Dealer told me they keep it in-stock, replace a lot of lines on N55s |
