BMW Cooling System Parts & Accessories for BMW X Series E83 (2004-2010)

Clear BMW chassis

The cooling system is arguably the weakest point in numerous BMWs. If you drive an aging BMW or plan on taking your car to the track like we do, we recommend beefing up your cooling system before going to the track. Generally, the main components in your cooling system that are prone to failure include the following: expansion tank, factory hoses, water pump, thermostat, fan (especially if your vehicle comes factory with a clutch fan), and radiator. Factory BMW expansion tanks are plastic and prone to either breaking off at connection points or combusting. As factory rubber hoses age they either crack or break over time - we offer silicone cooling hose upgrades for most applications to avoid future failures. If you have an older vehicle, your water pump likely comes from the factory with a plastic impeller - we offer upgraded water pumps with metal impellers that are far more reliable. Newer model BMWs utilize electric water pumps - BMW spent millions of dollars engineering these water pumps, but they fail so often that we recommend replacing at 60,000 mile service intervals to avoid being stranded on the side of the road. In terms of thermostats, we offer various upgraded thermostats for racing applications. If your BMW utilizes a clutch fan from the factory, we have several options available in terms of universal electric fans - we recommend replacing these to avoid sending brittle plastic fan blades through your hood. For radiators, we recommend swapping out your radiator for one that does not use plastic connection points like your factory radiator.

We have found that the expansion tanks should be replaced based on age as well as condition. Expansion tanks seem to have a lifespan of less than six years before they show signs of fatigue and wear. Pre-emptively replacing the expansion tank as part of an overall maintenance plan can prevent you from getting stranded from a sudden failure later on.

Having an operational bleeder screw for your coolant system assures that when service is performed, all air pockets are removed. Having air pockets in your coolant system prevents your system from functioning properly. Your heat may not work as well and there is the potential for engine overheating if the air pocket is trapped behind the thermostat. Be sure that all of the air is bled out of your system with a new bleeder screw.

BMW utilized a single part number for their aluminum pipe and hose combination - making this part typically over $100 to replace. Rein to the rescue! By supplying just the rubber component, repairs can be made quickly and cost effectively (and without the waste of scraping a perfectly good aluminum pipe!) Includes both hose clamps and rubber hose.
