OEM BMW Engine radiator
Rating 5.0
  • Overheating:

OEM radiator. Replaced radiator on visit 5 (today). Bmw closed loop network is what eventually led to the radiator being checked as they’ve seen aftermarket radiators actually cool the cars too much, therefore sending the tstat fault in cold weather (this issue occurred first last winter for me, then again 5 times this winter.. all same fault code). Confidence that this is the root cause fix seems to be high so fingers crossed I won’t be updating this in a few days.

Pros: actual solution, high confidence fix

OEM BMW Engine radiator

I've replaced a radiator on a BMW 2018 3 Series with as little as 22k miles. This particular vehicle was leaking from the side tank of the rad, where the plastic is crimped to the aluminum. Nothing abnormal could be seen, just the crimp failed.

Cons: leaking from side tank

  • Overheating:

BMW N51 engine, SULEV radiator, these cars came with a sensor that sticks to the side of the radiator for emissions compliance. Can't even get it aftermarket anymore (last time I checked) new radiator without the sensor is like $150, with the sensor is close to $800, and no you cannot use the old sensor, if you try sticking the old sensor to a new radiator it won't recognize it and it will trigger the check engine light.

Pros: new radiator available
Cons: expensive radiator with sensor

The white tank has never been the issue for me, leaks are always in the radiator frame surrounding that tank. Somewhere at the bottom, probably where the lower hose goes. The plastic is brittle crap and it develops micro-fractures that become cracks over time.

Cons: brittle plastic, develops cracks

I have a 2008 e90 335xi FBO with 197k miles and I am still on my original BMW radiator. If the stock original BMW stamped one works well... why experiment?

Pros: excellent longevity, works well

I had an older BMW myself (E36) and if you want reliability you'll need aftermarket (improved) radiator, radiator hoses and water pump.

Pros: improved reliability
Cons: requires aftermarket parts
