URO Parts Coolant Transfer Feed Pipe 11141439975-PRM, Repair BMW N62 V8 Seal Leak

Late model BMW V8 models fitted with the N62 engine can suffer from a failure of the front seal of the water transfer feed pipe located under the intake valley pan gasket. The original bonded seal fails primarily due to corrosion caused by an electro-chemical reaction between the materials over time. Symptoms will be a coolant leak coming from the 5mm weep hole in the front timing cover of the engine and eventual loss of coolant and over heating. The factory design is a long tube which can only be fitted from the front of the engine with the timing cover removed; a job that can cost upwards of $10,000 and take over 20 hours of shop time. The URO Parts designed water pipe collapses allowing the same repair to be complete without removing the timing cover, saving thousands in labor costs and many...
