BMW Cooling System Parts & Accessories for BMW E90 M3 S65 4.0L

Clear BMW chassis

Please ensure your correct model is selected

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.

BMW is well-known for its 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 E90 M3 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 E90 M3 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 E46 M3 today and drive with confidence!

Red Line SuperCool Concentrate fortified with WaterWetter is a concentrated antifreeze/coolant designed to maximize the performance of your cooling system with superior protection against cavitation corrosion/erosion. Using SuperCool Concentrate diluted with distilled water protects the entire cooling system keeping new components like new for 5 years/150,000 miles and prevents further damage to older components. Red Line’s proprietary coolant additive formula enhances the fluid’s ability to transfer heat, reducing operating temperatures by up to 20*F and prolonging the life of the entire cooling system. Red Line's SuperCool is an OAT coolant that is a Nitrate and Silicate Free product with its own proprietary corrosion technology to offer superior protection for aluminum engines found in all European vehicles, performance vehicles, as well as other applications. SuperCool will not void the factory warranty either. It can be used to top off the existing coolant of any BMW and will not cause any ill-effects on the cooling system because it is silicate and nitrate free. It is still better to flush it out and switch completely to SuperCool to get all the full benefits of the product in performance and protection.
