BMW Engine Coolant Expansion Tank Cap - Rein 17117639021

Product Information

The engine coolant reservoir cap is a critical component of a vehicle's cooling system. It seals the coolant reservoir or expansion tank, which holds excess engine coolant and maintains pressure in the cooling system. The cap is designed to release pressure at a specified level, ensuring that the cooling system operates effectively without excessive pressure buildup.

• Coolant Leaks: A damaged or improperly sealed cap can lead to coolant leaking from the reservoir, which may be visible under the vehicle or around the reservoir itself
• Overheating Engine: If the cap fails to maintain the proper pressure, it can cause the engine to overheat due to a drop in the boiling point of the coolant, leading to inadequate cooling
• Low Coolant Levels: Frequent need to add coolant to the reservoir may indicate a faulty cap that isn’t sealing properly, allowing coolant to escape

About Rein

Founded in 2007, CRP Automotive introduced the Rein Automotive line of OE-quality replacement parts to the aftermarket. And in just two short years, Rein Automotive has become very popular among both warehouse distributors and professional repair technicians. Rein is the German word for “pure”, and has come to be synonymous with quality in the automotive aftermarket. A true dealer alternative.

The Rein brand includes a growing number of “better than OE” parts for selected applications. These parts address known weaknesses and premature failures of factory parts. Many of these replacement and service solutions have been developed with the help of our Innovation Council, a hand-picked group of experienced professional repair technicians and shop owners throughout North America.

All Rein Automotive OE-quality parts are backed by the CRP Automotive standard, and are backed with a ISO 9001:2015 quality management system certification. Each year, CRP Automotive ships thousands of Rein Automotive brand products. And with widespread NAFTA market distribution through strategically placed warehouses in Cranbury, New Jersey and Puebla, Mexico - OE-quality products like Rein Automotive are delivered to customers both faster and more cost-effectively than ever before.

In 2017 Rein partnered with FCP Euro in competing a W204 C300 AER car for the 2017 season. The partnership focused FCP Euro to dive deep into the Rein catalog offering, and hundreds of new products were added and integrated into our catalog. Hundreds of new packages were created not only using the full part pine up of Rein products, but also the entire family of CRP products like Pentosin.

Rein is also an innovative brand, winning numerous trade awards — including multiple new product innovation awards at the annual AAPEX trade show.
