For the coolant leak !
Replace the bmw coolant reservoir and the Cap and you are done ! this is very known issue for N55, this happened to mine X1 N55 too.

Watch for Oil Housing gasket leaks, you need to get it done in time too, worse case scenario is Rod Bearings do fail on this N55 Engine, the Timing Chain Guide fails on N20 Engine xdrive28i.
You have to change your Transmission Fluid as well, i'm 100% sure it will fail if you don't ! BMW Engine built in Germany has some technical issues, very poor material and quality control, the rest is fine, like they have awesome Suspension from M-Performance team and best Steering system etc.

I came from LEXUS F-sport performance, i just want to bring back BMW M-performance to life ! BMW makes great car but ENGINE need improvement.
