Hello my friends,
The HITZ just won't stop, waiting to get engine mounts replaced soon on my 2012 F02 Xdrive, but while waiting start smelling this antifreeze or brake fluid smell through my vent... ANY expertise or similar issues by anyone else?What else is coming with this car?
If it's the turbo motor which I think it is I would look at the turbo coolant hoses, famous for leaking
There are plenty of places that coolant can leak from. Pop the cover off and start looking. A pressure test can help locate leaks, but normally on the N63 engine, they show up pretty obviously. Check the coolant y-pipe "vent hose" that's down below/behind, and to the side of the alternator. The plastic y-pipe is notorious for breaking and leaking coolant. As well as jclausen said, the turbo coolant lines right on top are notorious for leaking as well.
