I was restoring an N52 and this was the perfect fit to replace the original (plastic) flange. I'm confident this will last much longer than it's predecessor!

Works perfectly! Better than Bmw's plastic bs!

X5 N55. Good call on this part my was completely cracked in body good thing was changed. Fit perfect.

But after 1 year that o ring is toast would be great if they come with spare o rings at least one so you don’t have to purchase another one

Great fitment. Just need to get the OEM o-ring to avoid any leaks.

Absolute must have on an n54 engine.

This is a must buy product if you are tired of the rubber/plastic end pieces. Glad I was able to buy this and install it myself. Works great on my E90 and I do not have to worry about the piece becoming brittle.

Bought this upgrade a while ago for my wife's F30. Did the OFHG yesterday and took the opportunity to install the metal flange as part of the project. One thing to know is that all replacement hoses come with the plastic flange permanently attached. FCP confirmed this and recommended breaking the plastic flange, to remove and replace it with this metal flange. I bought the Rein replacement hose, carefully crushed the plastic flange in a vice (using plastic jaw inserts), removed it with the retaining clamp and replaced it with the metal flange. Worked fine. No more worries about the plastic flange failing!

Work like advertised and the coolant leak problem a definite upgrade from the OEM.... would highly recommend

I was doing my OFHG, Serpentine drive, and Water Pump/Thermostat on my F10 535I and decided to get his as preventative maintenance. I also ordered a BM<W Brand OEM O-Ring like people recommended just for piece of mind. My OEM one crumbled in to pieces but luckily nothing fell in the engine. Just be careful removing the original one. Take your time!!!!!
