BMW Coolant Expansion Tanks

Our Turner Motorsport's full aluminum expansion tank was designed and engineered in house to help with the weak point in your N52/N54 cooling system. The coolant expansion tank goes through heat cycles over and over again from regular driving, it is important that your expansion tank is doing its job to retain coolant to keep your engine operating temperatures down and keep your engine bay clean. Not only is this a major upgrade but also a great maintenance item to replace. Our expansion tank was designed to fit the OEM hoses for an easy install and comes with all the upgraded items you will need for a clean install

If your BMW needs a new expansion tank, make sure this is the last expansion tank you ever need to buy. Our coolant expansion tank has a full aluminum construction and wrinkle black powder coat for durability. Expansion tank kit comes with all the accessories you need to replace your expansion tank once, and never have to worry about it again.

BMWs are well-known for their problematic cooling systems, which are often the cause of 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 F8X 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 F80 M3, F82/F83 M4, and F87 M2 Competition owners: a heavy-duty expansion tank that is 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, our 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 S55-equipped BMW today and drive with confidence!
