Overheating and check engine light in BMW 3 Series - experience and advice wanted

Hello everyone! My 2008 BMW 3 Series, petrol engine with 214125 km on the clock, is currently causing me some concern. It is overheating massively and the check engine light is on. After my last unpleasant experience with the garage, I would like your opinions. I suspect something is wrong with the coolant pump. Have you had similar problems with your car? What experiences have you had with your mechanic? I would be grateful for any information!

Check the fuse box for any blown fuses related to the coolant pump. Refer to your vehicle's manual for the exact location and amperage of the fuse. If the fuse is intact, inspect the wiring and connectors for any damage or loose connections. If the issue persists, consider having a professional mechanic diagnose the problem, as it may involve more complex electrical components. Let us know how it goes or if you have further questions.
