BMW calls it the return pipe. It joins the water pump to the coolant valley pan, part 11-14-7-507-278, which sits in the vee of the engine. It is a common point for coolant leaks on these engines. Typical signs of a failing pipe are cracking, leaking, swelling, and general deterioration. The pipe weighs 46 g and is made in Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginal BMW Parts carry a 24-month parts warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBMW has produced this pipe since July 2001. It superseded 11-51-0-150-981 and is rated exchangeable retrospectively, so it replaces the older pipe on any car in the fitment. It is used on the N62 and N62N V8 and on the N73 V12, which is why it spans the E60 and E61 5 Series, the E63 and E64 6 Series, the E65 and E66 7 Series, and the E53 and E70 X5. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: BMW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: 11-51-1-439-976\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW part name: return pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaces: 11-51-0-150-981 (exchangeable retrospectively)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnects: water pump inlet to valley pan 11-14-7-507-278\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 46 g (0.1 lb)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduction start: July 2001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of manufacture: Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually as one pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 24-month parts warranty on Original BMW Parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does this pipe connect to?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt runs from the inlet of the water pump to the coolant valley pan, part 11-14-7-507-278.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill it replace 11-51-0-150-981?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
