BMW Cooling System Parts & Accessories for BMW I01 i3 IB3

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.

Red Line SuperCool Performance Coolant fortified with WaterWetter is a 50/50 prediluted antifreeze/coolant designed to maximize the performance of your cooling system with superior protection against cavitation corrosion/erosion. Using 100% SuperCool Performance 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.

This high-quality BEHR brand expansion tank is used on MINI Cooper R55 R56 and is a common failure item. BEHR was the original equipment supplier to BMW, so you know the BEHR made expansion tank will be the highest quality available. Be cautious of competitors selling this part for less -- is it a BEHR? Probably not. We only carry the BEHR brand expansion tank as it is the only one we use in our own MINIs. If you are overhauling your coolant system, now is the time to consider preventative replacing this expansion tank. These are known to go bad, causing a leak which can leave you stranded. We have found that the expansion tanks should be replaced based on age as well as condition. Expansion tanks seem to have a lifespan of fewer than six years before they show signs of fatigue and wear. Pre-emptively replacing the expansion tank as part of an overall maintenance plan can prevent you from getting stranded from a sudden failure later on.

Hailing from Stuttgart, Mahle-Behr specializes in automotive cooling systems. From air conditioning to engine cooling M-B has you covered with OE-quality replacement parts.

This item fits the following MINIs:
2007+ R56 MINI MINI Cooper, MINI Cooper S
2007+ R55 MINI MINI Cooper Clubman, MINI Cooper S Clubman
2007+ R57 MINI MINI Cooper Convertible, MINI Cooper S Convertible,
2011+ R60 MINI MINI Cooper Countryman, MINI Cooper Countryman S


This item fits the following BMWs:
2015+ I01 BMW i3
2015+ I12 BMW i8
