Hey all, so I just chsnged the oil today on my m4 and after a short drive, saw the scene shown in the video (linked below). I’m new to working on cars in general and would appreciate any input on how to move forward with this and what the likely cause is.

Looks like your coolant reservoir is leaking (not super uncommon). Unrelated to the oil change!

Yup, replace the reservoir! It’s a pretty straight forward job: https://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1739475
