BMW Cooling System Parts & Accessories

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.

Replace the Achilles heel of your factory cooling system with a stout and reliable mechanical thermostat setup.

The factory E46 thermostat housing is a combined unit featuring a plastic housing and a built in thermostat that you cannot replace separately. These plastic all-in-one units are commonly know to crack or fail causing a headache, a trip on the tow truck and possible damage to your engine.

Taking cues from the reliable M50 thermostat setup we designed a an assembly that not only converts your plastic housing into a billet aluminum unit but also swaps out the integrated thermostat for a separate replaceable thermostat. The ability to swap out thermostats separately from the whole housing opens up doors to changing thermostats to different temperature ratings based on your application while also providing lower maintenance costs. No longer do you have to replace the whole housing but just the thermostat itself.

The billet housing is designed to be utilized with E46 M3 upper and lower radiator hoses and also features -16 ORB connections for custom radiator hoses. A major upgrade from the factory and aftermarket plastic units. Our thermostat housing kit can be used by the savvy daily driver or the track hero who wants to ensure the durability of their cooling system.

Key benefits:

Uses M50/S50 mechanical thermostat for increased reliability
Option to use aftermarket colder thermostats if desired
Thermostat can be replaced separately for lower maintenance cost
Barbed hose connections for use with E46 M3 hoses or built in -16 ORB connections for custom radiator hoses
Design:

Machined out of a single piece of billet 6061 aluminum, this thermostat housing will withstand higher prolonged temperatures and abuse for performance applications
Black anodized with engraved Turner logo on the front to match the Turner Motorsports Power Steering Reservoir
Viton gasket for superior sealing performance
For use with E46 M3 radiator hoses 11537830715 and 11537830716
Kit contents:

6061 Billet Aluminum Thermostat Housing
Mechanical Thermostat
Thermostat Housing Gasket
Thermostat Harness
Optional Silicone or Rubber E46 M3 coolant hoses
Product Development:

Our Billet Thermostat Housing upgrade was designed, engineered, tested and quality inspected by our Research and Development team at Turner. Nothing but the highest level of precision and quality through leading-edge product development technology including 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.

Upgrade your cooling system setup with our Heavy Duty Radiator Mounting Brackets, engineered to deliver maximum structural support and a refined engine-bay aesthetic. After decades of heat cycles and hard driving, your E30's factory plastic mounts inevitably become brittle, faded, and prone to cracking, risking damage to your radiator. Our radiator mount upgrade completely replaces those tired OEM units with a high-strength alternative built to handle the rigors of spirited driving, track days, and engine swaps. Whether you are performing a full cooling system refresh or executing an M5X swap that utilizes an E36-style radiator, these brackets provide the ideal balance of precision fitment and rugged dependability.

Crafted with a premium brushed stainless steel finish, this kit does more than secure your radiator; it radically improves the visual appeal under the hood by swapping out cheap, weathered plastic for durable steel hardware. Designed as a true direct bolt-on solution, the brackets align seamlessly with factory mounting locations, eliminating the need for frustrating custom fabrication, cutting, or drilling. They clamp down firmly to eliminate unwanted radiator movement, ensuring your cooling stack remains locked in place under heavy vibration.

Replace your fragile OEM plastic coolant bleeder screw, which is prone to cracking and failure, with a premium titanium upgrade built for strength and style under the hood. Factory plastic components weaken over time due to constant heat cycles, leading to brittleness and potential failure. Our titanium replacement delivers superior durability, being twice as strong as aluminum yet 45% lighter than steel, ensuring unmatched resilience and long-term reliability for your coolant system. More than an upgrade, it’s a must-have for engine longevity. CNC-machined from solid titanium, each screw features a laser-etched Burger Motorsports logo and is hand-burned to create unique color patterns—no two are alike. A heavy-duty replacement O-ring is included for a perfect fit.

Plastic thermostat housing cracked on your M50?

Here are your choices: you can wait for the plastic factory thermostat housing cover to break and cause major overheating. (Even with a new stock cover, it won’t take long.) Or you can install a thoughtfully engineered all-aluminum thermostat housing cover from Active Autowerke and never experience this type of failure again. Currently there is no factory upgraded part to this problem. This is an aluminum extruded part that has all of the openings machine properly to fit like factory; from the mounting bolt holes, the seating of the thermostat to the sealing opening for the ORANGE gasket. Forged to exact factory tolerances, everything fits and this unit is a true easy bolt-on – especially suited for racing or load conditions like heavy traffic, where engine temp can rise rapidly. The housing is guaranteed never to break from overheating or over-tightening, and its CNC machined surface ensures a precise seat.

Unit comes complete with a new ORANGE sealing gasket; a new thermostat is recommended but not included.
For hotter climates, a 71 degree thermostat is recommended over the 82 degree unit.

Anything and everything BMW is the mantra at Active Autowerke. Since 1981 they have been serving the BMW community with custom turbocharger kits to a myriad of other innovative and inspiring performance parts.

This heat exchanger upgrade is a high-quality replacement that dramatically lowers engine oil and water temperatures by providing a 50% larger cooling surface than OEM. The benefits are most noticed during back to back runs at higher boost levels where the factory cooling capacity can be overwhelmed resulting in ignition timing pull and reduced turbo efficiency. Direct bolt-in installation.
