Problems with overheating and engine indicator light on BMW X5 from 2011

Hello everyone, I have a problem with my BMW X5 from 2011 (gasoline engine, 258,412 km run). It has recently started to overheat and the check engine light is also on. I suspect it might be the coolant thermostat. Last time at the mechanic it cost me a small fortune though. Have any of you had similar problems and how much did you leave at the mechanic? I am grateful for any advice! LG

It sounds like your starter motor might be the issue. Try tapping the starter motor lightly with a tool, then try to start the car again. If it starts, it's likely the starter motor is failing and needs to be replaced. However, it's also possible that there's an issue with the ignition switch or a blown fuse. If the problem persists, I recommend having a mechanic inspect it to avoid causing any further damage. Let me know how it goes and if you have any other questions.

Thanks Again will let you know.
