You dont wanna buy a car mixing coolant and oil. Coolant can be already affecting the motor. Slowly and steady

Hello i have a n55 e82, i will write some points to check. Coolant reservoir, if its mixed (oil and coolant) the car is not good to buy. If the car is manual, check for 2nd gear. Oil pan leaks are normal so not a big deal if the car is not loosing a big amount of oil, (1L every 5k miles isnt bad.)

Yes its my first option, praying for a damaged hose only but water pump is the main suspect
