Please ensure your correct model is selected

On certain models, namely E36, E46, and E90, the factory BMW expansion tank is prone to either breaking at connection points or blowing apart altogether. If you're starting to feel like your expansion tank is on borrowed time, it's probably time to replace with either a direct OE replacement, or strengthen your cooling setup with an aluminum expansion tank - we offer numerous performance upgrades for your expansion tank. Especially if you're someone who likes to track your BMW, we recommend upgrading your expansion tank to avoid ruining your track day.

BMWs are well-known for their problematic cooling systems, which are often a catalyst for irreversible engine damage and a hefty repair bill. The coolant expansion tank—a crucial component responsible for holding hot engine coolant under high pressure—is a common cause of cooling system issues. Unfortunately, BMW chose to manufacture the factory E9X N55 expansion tank out of plastic. After years of exposure to high coolant temperatures, ambient engine bay heat, and chemical-rich antifreeze, the plastic degrades, eventually weakening enough to fail catastrophically.

With this issue in mind, our team of BMW enthusiasts engineered the ultimate cooling system upgrade for E82/88 and E90/92/93 owners: a heavy-duty expansion tank built to last! Crafted from durable 5052 TIG-welded aluminum, this tank resists high temperatures and pressures without degrading over time. Unlike the fragile OEM plastic tank, Turner’s design eliminates the risk of cracking, leaking, or failure. Upgrade to our Heavy Duty Aluminum Expansion Tank Kit and say goodbye to expansion tank issues for good!

To guarantee exact fitment, the upgraded tank was designed using advanced 3D CAD modeling. All bungs, nipples, and fittings are precision-machined to ensure a secure seal with factory hose ends. Unlike other aftermarket options, this tank maintains the factory coolant capacity and includes our laser-cut logo plate at the top, providing an accurate fill level. Internal baffles are incorporated to prevent fluid cavitation, eliminating air pockets in the cooling system and avoiding false coolant level warnings during spirited driving.

Engineered for high-performance builds and daily drivers alike, this expansion tank boasts a premium wrinkle black powder coat finish for a clean "OEM+" aesthetic. This tough coating not only enhances appearance but also protects against corrosion for long-term durability. The kit includes a silicone overflow hose, a high-quality level sensor, and an OE expansion tank cap, offering a complete cooling system upgrade. Avoid the risks of the factory expansion tank—upgrade your N55-equipped BMW today and drive with confidence!

Features & Benefits:

Durable 5052 TIG-Welded Aluminum Construction: Ensures long-term reliability and eliminates expansion tank failure. Premium Wrinkle Black Powder Coat Finish: Offers an "OEM+" appearance while preventing corrosion. Factory Coolant Capacity Retention: Maintains the same coolant level as the original design. Laser-Cut Turner Logo Plate: Provides a clear and accurate fill level indicator. Internal Baffles: Prevent the introduction of air pockets during high-performance driving. Precision-Machined External Bungs and Fittings: Ensure a perfect fit for factory hose connections. Kit Includes:

Turner Motorsport Aluminum Expansion Tank Performance Silicone Coolant Overflow Hose Aluminum Coolant Bleeder Screw Ball Stud 6mm Fitting Expansion Tank Cap Coolant Level Sensor Product Development:

Our Heavy Duty Aluminum Expansion Tank was designed, engineered, tested, and quality inspected by our Research & Development team. Our development process includes leading-edge product technology: FARO laser scanning for reverse engineering and quality inspection, SolidWorks 3D CAD modeling, rapid prototyping utilizing our in-house 3D printer, and rigorous long-term product testing.

Installation:

To aid in the installation process, we've assembled a start-to-finish installation guide, including detailed instructions on removing your factory cooling expansion tank and associated components.

Hotside intakes are a very common modification for N54 powered BMWs. Here at Turner Motorsport, we found ourselves unsatisfied with all existing solutions to relocate the coolant expansion tank to the cold side of your engine bay, freeing up real estate on the hot side. We decided to make an end all be all solution for people looking to relocate your expansion tank. All CAD designed in-house, our N54 aluminum expansion tank relocation kit allows you to seamlessly mount our new aluminum expansion tank on the cold side of your engine bay, featuring an integrated power steering pump reservoir mount. During the design process, we did everything possible to ensure no air pockets could develop in the cooling system even during spirited drives. The baffled tank is all TIG welded 5052 aluminum construction, featuring a carefully designed bleed passage. We also machined all of our bungs to accept OEM hose ends, to keep the fit and finish as OE+ as possible. Keeping with this same mindset, we made sure that coolant elevation matches OE exactly, and integrated a power steering pump reservoir mount. Our aluminum expansion tank accepts the OE coolant level sensor, bleeder screw, and coolant cap, but we include new ones with this kit, as we thought you should replace them during installation. See more about these features in the list below, and if you have any additional questions please feel free to call into our staff of skilled BMW enthusiasts at 1-800-280-6966.
