N63T Broken Hose!
Hi all!
I heard a whistling sound this morning when I started the X5 up and checked the ECU via torque and there were no errors. I checked the engine bay area and found the following hose broken. Can anyone identify it so I can replace it? Can the car be driven, can duct tape provide a temporary fix? Thanks

Yes here's Maverick's post that he warned us about that hose (part# 11158647298) and advised to replace it: http://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...2&postcount=16
It's $110 from here: https://parts.bmwofsouthatlanta.com/...158647298.html As a temporary fix you can use a sturdy duct tape, while you are waiting for a replacement part. P.S. Not my business, but I almost had a seizure when I saw N63T. Already second post I'm seeing this. I initially thought it's some kind of a Euro spec engine version of our N63TU lol.

Haha yep. Exactly what was broke on mine. See my post for all the info you need. Much cheaper if you order from a wholesale dealer than local dealer. Either way they're gonna have to order it most like and duct tape or better I would recommend electrical tape due to its playability and ability stretch. But be careful cuz it's very brittle stuff and will break again. Mine broke just by putting my hand under it to clean up the spilled oil.

Great stuff guys, thanks for the links! Does anyone know if I could wrap the new hose in heat tape to prevent it from turning to dust again?
Correction: I'll pick this one up from ECS tuning... its wrapped in rubber. https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...e/11158647298/

Yeah, that hose is made from hard thin plastic and is right above turbos. Cats heating up to 1700F are just couple inches below this hose. If it was made from thick rubber - then it would have lasted for almost eternity.

Glad to see they replaced both hose assemblies. Especially since the smaller one is about $300 for the part alone.
Did you tape yours back up and drive to the dealer? That's the only thing I was afraid of and opted to just eat the cost of the cheaper hose and I put in myself vice dealing with my extended warranty
