BMW Radiators for BMW E46 M3 S54 (1999-2005)

Clear BMW chassis

Please ensure your correct model is selected

We sell only OE supplier or approved aftermarket upgrade radiators for your BMW. It seems BMW took some shortcuts when it came to radiator design and used weak materials like plastic for critical connection points. If you are tracking older models like E30, E36, or E46, you probably are well aware of these issues. As these cars age, the plastic pieces become more brittle and failure prone. The solution is to replace with upgraded radiators that perform as upgrades for the original, failure prone radiator to avoid being left on the side of the road or, worse yet, the track.

Ditch your failure-prone plastic end tanks and increase cooling capacity by 25%—all without modifying your core support or accompanying shrouds. This Performance Triple-Pass Radiator is the ULTIMATE cooling system upgrade for your S54-equipped BMW!

The E46 M3 is a masterclass in German engineering. Harboring six independent throttle bodies, infinitely variable dual-VANOS, and an 8,000 RPM redline, the S54 is practically a racing engine for the road. Unfortunately, the engine's motorsport pedigree didn't quite make it to the cooling system. The OEM radiator, while superior to its non-M counterpart, struggles to keep coolant temperature in check under sustained high-RPM conditions. Heat soak, elevated operating temperatures, and component fatigue are all too familiar to M3 owners who track their S54 regularly.

To solve this problem, we teamed up with CSF Race, a global leader in high-performance cooling solutions with over five decades of industry experience. Together, we developed the CSFxTurner Triple-Pass Radiator: a high-performance, no-compromise solution built to meet the cooling demands of track-day warriors.

Part Design:

CSF-Exclusive "B-Tube" Technology Unlike conventional "O-tube" designs, CSF’s patented B-tube structure increases wall strength while creating a more efficient flow path. This alone accounts for a 15% increase in cooling capacity over an OE "o-tube" radiator! Triple-Pass Core Design As the name suggests, this unique structure forces coolant through the core three times before exit, resulting in a substantial temperature delta across the radiator core. Two-Row Compact Structure This radiator was designed with precise fitment in mind. While total tube count and size are increased, the overall radiator dimensions stay the same as OE, ensuring a drop-in fit with zero modifications required. 25% Increase in Cooling Capacity All of the above design features translate to a massive 25% cooling increase over the stock radiator! Features & Performance Benefits:

Direct-fit upgrade—no modifications required! Accepts all OEM attachments via CNC-machined "Quick-Connect" hose ends and accessory mounting provisions TIG-welded aluminum construction provides increased durability An all-aluminum drain plug replaces the weak OE plastic unit, ensuring seamless functionality for the life of the radiator Increased cooling efficiency for high-performance and racing use Designed and tested by Turner Motorsport in collaboration with CSF Race

More than likely, you are going to replace the radiator in your vehicle at least once. The joints where the cores meet the end tanks tend to get weak and are the first place to spring a leak. Impacts to the fins themselves can cause holes to form. Corrosion and clogging from the inside can make cooling less than effective and compromise coolant flow. Replace your leaking unit with a factory replacement and get that jug of coolant out of your back seat. This is a factory original style radiator from Genuine BMW and will fit perfectly into the stock location. Cooling will be identical to what your car came with originally. A great replacement with all the proper connections and in all of the proper locations. When doing radiator and cooling service, you will obviously lose coolant. Browse through the cooling section of your model to see factory correct coolants, seals, and caps. Before beginning, check your hoses to make sure everything is in good shape.
