I had the water pump & thermostat replaced this week (128i, 143,000km/89,000 mi). No sign of it failing. So now I'll never know if it would've lasted another 5k or another 50,000k.

Yeah, I need to change my vote. 2011 135i is -1 on the no issue and +1 on the failure. replaced it a while back but forgot about this poll.

2008 135i 6MT E88 with 97,000 miles. Previous owner replaced the water pump but not the thermostat. Thermostat was throwing a code when I bought the car in August 2021. I have since replaced the pump and thermostat while I had everything ripped apart for the turbo replacement job. I bought the least expensive genuine BMW parts I could find with the latest part numbers. Hoping to get another 75,000-100,000 miles before it needs any major work again.

2009 128i w/ 144k mi. Still original.
I do a decent amount of preventative maintenance (occasional coolant drain/fill, but never a true "flush"), and have replaced some other cooling system parts.

This car has particular chrono significance to me since it was built on our youngest son's birthday. Maybe he will inherit it, if he can learn to run a shop vac and orbital buffer . . . |

Hmm, I didn't even think of that when I did mine. It ended up coming out 6 months or a year later to do the belt and tensioner pulley up front. If one does take the fan out they may as well do both jobs at the same time (belt/pulley and water pump).
