Same thing just happened last night. Wake up in the morning with a green puddle. Checked the expansion tank fittings and bleeder all look okay. Looked over behind the radiator and lots of green dried coolant on one of the lines. Identified it as the turbo coolant return. Gentle squeezing at the rubber connection to the metal line identified the crack. Turns out it's exactly the same as your video. I liked the "this is not a DIY video" that's for sure. Too bad you're not in San Diego you could replace mine!
Did this a few weeks ago. Unfortunately the feed line and thermostat are also apparently leaking. Not to mention the oil filter housing which completely went. Still love this car 😆😭
Just had this happen, refill coolant light came on.. topped it off with coolant then when I drove the car the next morning it gave me the refill light again. So I let the car sit overnight for it to cool down next morning. I checked my coolant tank and there was no coolant so I came to the assumption that I have a coolant leak somewhere. Went to my local BMW because luckily I purchased extended warranty until 100 K miles. BMW told me it’s my turbo coolant lines. Also they are replacing my oil filter housing gasket as well.. 😬

Do you need to remove turbos to do this job or? Just curious.
@@f30angel that’s good to hear! Both of those jobs are very common on this motor and will happen eventually on most of these
@@f30angel no you do not
