BMW Cooling System Parts & Accessories for BMW X Series E83 (2004-2010)

Our Turner Motorsport's full aluminum expansion tank was designed and engineered in house to help with the weak point in your E46 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.

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.

The N5X family of engines marked the start of a new era for BMW. The all-new aluminum block powerplants featured a host of technical upgrades, aiding in power output, reliability, and performance. Among these technological advances is an external electronic water pump, which removed load from the engine's accessory drive and allowed for advanced pulse-width-modulated (PWM) control.

From factory, the N52's electronic water pump is limited to a measly 200W output—strong enough for daily driving, but lacking in performance applications. Recognizing this shortcoming, ECS engineers set out to create a high-flow water pump upgrade that doesn't break the bank. Their high-quality adapter wiring harness and bracket allow you to install a 400W N54 water pump without any modification, an effortless, yet effective upgrade that doubles the output of the factory water pump!

By increasing coolant flow capacity, the 400W pump improves heat extraction from the cylinder head and engine block during high-load operation. This added thermal headroom is particularly beneficial for modified engines, sustained aggressive driving, track use, or operation in elevated ambient temperatures where the factory pump can operate near its limits. Improved circulation helps maintain more stable coolant temperatures and reduces the risk of localized hot spots.

Features & Benefits:

Upgrades to the more powerful 400W N54 water pump for increased coolant flow and improved engine cooling efficiency Sealed adaptor harness ensures secure connections and optimal operation under demanding conditions The N54 pump's higher power output offers longer-lasting, more effective cooling compared to the stock N52 pump Design:

40A fused power wire safely handles the increased power demands of the N54 pump, providing consistent and stable performance Sealed and robust construction, designed to withstand heat and moisture, ensuring reliability in even the most challenging environments Plug-and-play compatibility is designed for easy integration with the N52 engine and N54 water pump, minimizing installation time and complexity Kit Contents:
