    I sold an alternator job earlier this week on a 540i. The alternator is water-cooled. The job cost the customer a little over $1k.

    Blame german engineering, i believe the Alternator is cooled by coolant, to keep it from getting to hot. Some have this some dont i think, i maybe wrong. But Germans always like to re invent the wheel its why we love them! lol
