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.

Product Development:

Turner expansion tanks are 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.

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:

Ensure optimal performance and temperature regulation in your BMW's automatic transmission with the Turner Motorsport Genuine Automatic Transmission Thermostat, part number 17111437362. This thermostat serves as a crucial component of the heat exchanger system, maintaining proper fluid temperatures for smooth transmission operation. Typically replaced during expansion tank maintenance, this Genuine BMW part guarantees reliability and compatibility with your vehicle.

Key Benefits:

• Genuine BMW quality assurance
• Maintains proper transmission fluid temperatures
• Ensures smooth transmission operation
• Direct replacement for OEM thermostat
• Compatible with expansion tank replacement

Engine running a little hot or is the temp gauge not telling you anything? The thermostat might be the likely problem. Many cooling issues start with the thermostat. This is electronically controlled by the engine computer based on the cooling demands from the engine. And cooling components are working harder than ever. Engine performance is also dependent on temperature - as temperatures rise and pass a certain threshold the engine computer will begin reducing power. Stay on top of your cooling maintenance by replacing critical components preventatively. This replacement thermostat fits many of the N51 N52 N53 N54 6 cylinder engines and is an OEM Behr part.  

The thermostat is located along with the water pump on the side of the engine. To gain access for removal you may need to remove the water pump as well. If the water pump is removed you MUST replace its mounting bolts. You can add them from the options below. We also have a bundled package that includes the water pump, mounting screws, connecting hose, and clamps if you want to replace everything together (recommended).
