BMW Thermostats

BMW thermostats are known to fail, but luckily they typically fail wide open - meaning that your car can still cool. We offer thermostats from various OE suppliers we trust along with upgraded motorsport specific thermostats where applicable to make sure your BMW stays cool on track.

Some of the biggest issues when owning a BMW can come from cooling system components. Even through years of improvement, the same failure is seen with the plastic fittings and adapters from years of hot to cold temperature fluctuation. The N52/N54/N55/N20 engine sees failure at the plastic cylinder head outlet adapter connecting the cylinder head to the thermostat hose. The stock plastic adapter simply shears off at the end of the barbed fitting, creating a massive coolant leak. The engineering team at ECS Tuning decided a billet aluminum piece was a much better option to contend with the temperature fluctuation. Since other offerings on the market want you to modify your OE hose to be reused, they even developed a silicone replacement hose. These 2 pieces can be purchased separately if you decide to reuse your existing OE hose or in a package kit together for a single click upgrade. Features: Manufactured from billet 6061-T6 with type III anodized for exceptional durability and corrosion resistance. Much stronger part than OEM plastic ​​Will not become brittle and fatigued over time due to thermal cycling. This will prevent the part from breaking during removal and re-installation. Follows OEM form for perfect fitment. Utilizes (and includes) OEM O-ring 11537545278 to ensure a proper seal. Recommended clamp size is 25-40mm

When it comes to cooling system hose replacement, the "U" shaped hose connecting the water pump to the thermostat is usually the first to fail. A lot of this comes from its close proximity to the hot downpipes, while some of this failure comes from the sharp bends in the hose. 

Why not upgrade when you're due for a replacement? The ECS Tuning silicone hose replacement fixes these issue with two key features in their design. Offering this hose in a much more heat resistant silicone instead of OE rubber and having the hose wrapped in aluminum. The aluminum coating acts as a heat shield to further protect the silicone as well as reducing the temperatures forced on the coolant running through the hose.

BMW E46 M54 AAF Low Temp Thermostat Kit - Partial is an essential upgrade for enthusiasts looking to optimize engine performance and reliability. Developed by Advanced Auto Fabrication (AAF), this kit addresses the limitations of the factory M54 thermostat, which maintains a temperature range of 80-103°C and opens the mechanical failsafe at 110°C. For race conditions where maintaining a lower temperature is crucial, this kit replaces the stock electronic thermostat with a manual unit, allowing the engine to run at a safer and more efficient temperature. This upgrade not only enhances engine longevity but also reduces stress from high-temperature operation, minimizes heat soak, and increases power.

  • Optimal Temperature Control: Replaces the factory thermostat for improved engine temperature management.
  • Enhanced Engine Longevity: Operates at safer temperatures, reducing stress and extending engine life.
  • Increased Power: Lower operating temperatures can lead to better engine performance.
  • Reduced Heat Soak: Helps prevent overheating and ensures efficient cooling.
  • Improved Reliability: Manual thermostat unit offers more consistent performance in racing conditions.

Partial Kit Contents:

  • Thermostat housing plate
  • Thermostat
  • Installation hardware

Since 2010, Advanced Auto Fabrication has been producing and developing both parts and full fledged race cars. Their knowledge base covers a wide range of vehicles both domestic and imported. In the specific case of BMW, the team at AAF has a particular affinity for building and designing components for BMW race cars. The factory M54 thermostat is electronically controlled to keep the engine running between 80-103°C, whereas race cars like to maintain 80°C or less for maximum power. Additionally, the mechanical failsafe doesn’t open up until the coolant temperature reaches 110°C, or 230°F, which is about the point when most race cars are turned off and parked which is no good for the motor! The AAF E46 M54 Low Temp Thermostat Kit is designed to give the control of proper engine operating temperature back by replacing the stock electronic thermostat with a manual unit. This allows the engine to run at the proper, and much safer, operating temperature, improving engine longevity, reduces stress from high-temp. operation, reduces heat soak, and increases power!

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.

When it comes to your temperature gauge on your instrument cluster your thermostat plays a large role in where that temperature needle ends up. There are many cases where the vehicle will run a bit cool according to that gauge, oftentimes meaning the thermostat has failed and is stuck open allowing coolant to continuously circulate. The other more damaging side is when it closes shut and keeps the engine from cooling down properly. All vehicles are designed to operate in an ideal temperature range for the ultimate efficiency, life, and performance.
