I had my 2012 BMW X5 for 5 years and put about 58000 miles on it when water pump started failing.
First time, the overheating warning light on when I drove on highway. The cooling fun ran like crazy. After parking on roadside for 5 minutes, car started and drove normally. After that, same problem happened 3 times within 2 weeks. Checked with my mechanic and confirmed it was due to a failing water pump. Cost of repairing is around $1200.
