Anyone happen to know the size of o-ring for the quick connect hose which attaches to the thermostat? Mines leaking after WP/therm replacement. F25 xdrive35i but surely it's the same as it's similar engined sibling. Much thanks in advance. Here's the connector I'm talking about:

2012 X3 Xdrive35i
'97 M3/4/5 silver/black 92k mi, minty Gone
'95 Boston/grey M3, bone stock, 147k mi Gone
R1150GS, '16 Husky FE501 & '23 TE300i, KX500 TImbersled, and stuff
Sadly BMW doesn't post up those sizes on the parts catalog, it's best to just replace the whole hose.
The other option is to buy a o-ring kit and compare the old one to one from the kit.

Remove the o-ring and take it to your local hardware store. My True Value has a HUGE assortment of english and metric dimensioned o-rings. Grab a tube of Sil-Glyde. This will help with assembly.
