When the yellow radiator warning light illuminates on the display of the BMW X3, it means there are issues with the radiator: these could be related to the reservoir, the hose, or the radiator itself, which might be broken and causing a leak. Ensure that the light stays on even after topping off, otherwise it might be illuminated simply because the fluid level is too low. To determine where the leak is occurring, it can be helpful to add a quart of water to the radiator and wait a few seconds for it to enter the system.
