BMW X6 owners have reported 3 problems related to coolant leaking (under the engine and engine cooling category). The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I took my 2009 BMW X6 to the BMW dealer, union city GA for 3 purposes: suspected leak of coolant; check engine light on; and excessive smoke coming from both exhaust pipes. Spoke with/communicated via email with BMW svc rep, went over documented concerns. . . To include smoke from both exhaust pipes; received document for approval; which I approved. Received vehicle 3 days later, returning home with vehicle to observe smoke 'excessive' from both exhaust pipes. Returned vehicle, to be told by svc mgr, "I'm sorry, I can only reprimand svc rep, as the work that was done would not correct smoke from exhaust. " then, svc mgr went on to speak of the class action law suit that addressed this problem, but the timeframe to have this corrected (for free) had expired 'by date". . . And this information is usually sent to the original owner. As I expressed to him, I am the 4th owner of this vehicle and received no information. . . He of course was apologetic and gave an estimate of $8k to correct this problem (that I was "told" and paid for would correct the problem). I called hq BMW only to receive an apology and referred to BMW union city. . . To receive a written estimate from the [same] svc manager. *smoke observed wihile vehicle is stationary with engine on; and in motion in both city and on highway. Began 3/16 - 3/31/2020.

Turbo coolant recall. The turbo coolant pump is not working which cause the car to over heat now currently leaking from the hoses. The car is currently parked and if I start to drive it, it starts to overheat and smoke.

Hi my name is kizy kizy I bought a BMW X6 5. 0 2011 I've been having a lot of problems with my SUV! in the last month I've been in the dealership 4 times for coolant issues it's sad because the third time my wife and I were at the movies our eyes started to itch,burning and felt like vomiting. So I brought the car back and they found leaks in the hoses and car was there for about eight days,don the head service manager told me they ran all the test they can and got everything done. On the 3rd of November our eyes started to itch and felt like vomiting again, so I called the dealer this Thursday and told them what's going on,don the head service guy and the head mechanic and the service guy both smelled a sent in my vehicle so for the fourth time my cars in the shop again. I picked my car up this Monday and brought it back to the dealerwith low oil light on and a sent in my car! I love the BMW vehicles but I just don't feel comfortable driving this vehicle anymore I feel like it's not safe or feel comfortable driving it anymore :( my wife is pregnant she's four month in the pregnancy and I'm said that BMW test us as test dummies. I just hope this didn't cause any kind of health issues for us long-term and for the baby,I spoke to betsy from BMW I explained to her that I did not go to the hospital because I do not have health insurance and I did not want to have a hospital bill. Please help I could give you more info you could call me at 586 5576555 I really don't want to put my family back in the vehicle again.
