Depending on your car's design, there is a good chance you have a coolant recovery tank. When you drive, your car's coolant warms and expands such that coolant may overflow through thinks hose and into your coolant recovery tank. When your car cools, the coolant contracts and needs the coolant in the recovery tank to fill the radiator as needed. Without a properly working tank and hose, you run the risk of overheating your car due to too little coolant.

The original parts used by BMW to build your car are available as replacement parts under the "Genuine BMW" brand. Manufactured under the direction of BMW, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are exclusively available through the BMW Dealership network. You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your BMW are not necessarily manufactured by BMW. No cause for concern, as BMW designs the part, hires a manufacturer and ensures its quality to you, including a lifetime warranty. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for BMW for decades and are experts in their own right. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers) or OES (Original Equipment Suppliers), and are often brands you recognize including Hella, Bosch, Bilstein and Lemforder. Don't be surprised to open that Genuine BMW parts box and find a Bosch branded part inside. If you are looking to buy Genuine BMW Parts online then you've come to the right place.
