Radiator

Your radiator is an integral, and arguably, the most important part of the cooling system. It is designed to expel heat from the coolant via the small fins. Most radiators fail when the end tanks crack causing leaks, but higher mileage radiators which have missing or bent fins often are clogged up with debris which can also cause overheating issues as the radiator cannot expel heat effectively. If your radiator is in rough shape we recommend replacing it. We also highly recommend inspecting/replacing the upper and lower radiator hose at that time.

Radiator Failure Symptoms
  • Overheating
  • Coolant Leak
  • Cracking
  • Bent Fins
  • Clogged Fins caused by debris

Performs Great and Well Made
I was far more impressed with the build quality than I expected. It has a beautiful finish, welds are great, hose connections and mounting brackets are spot on. I have an electric fan conversion and no AC condenser up front. It's not clapped, I simply bought it a decade ago when I shouldn't have as it ate my money on the more important things. It is geared high at 3.91 (LSD) which runs it at about 3000 RPMs constantly so it's working. Since the radiator and cooling system refresh the car only kicks the cooling fan if it's been ran hard for 10 minutes and then you stop and idle for a few minutes. Once it kicks some air through it, it's back off in a flash. The CSF stenciled on is well done, it has phenomenal heat transfer, and overall build quality. Can't complain about a thing. Highly recommend

Great Built Quality with Flaws - 328is
Good: Very high quality radiator. I've yet taken the car on track since install, but it does well for daily use. Bad: The top nipple was not welded straight. It was slightly aiming straight at the fan shroud mount. After filing the mount down a quarter of an inch, I was able to get the top hose on. If the bend was any further left, the radiator would have not been useable. The bottom/exit/passenger hose can not fully seat onto the coupling. The gap between the coupling and the middle fan shroud mount is too tight. Because of this, the hose and hose clamp will sit at an angle causing a coolant leakage. You will need to forcefully push the hose into the tight gap the best you can. I am using ECS Tuning silicone hoses btw.

CSF 3054 e36 radiator
If I gave it four stars it would only be because they included a note apologizing for not being able to do the mirror finish as advertised. It’s still a beautiful radiator tho. For the money it’s prolly the best thing going. Superior quality, it was a choice between this one and the KOYO but that one is not available anywhere. Prefer this as most reviews were good and the Mishimoto (basically same price) had some lackluster reviews. Fit was perfect, can’t wait to fill it up!

CSF 3054 aluminum radiator BMW 1995 M3
Well built radiator. Nicely polished welds. Fitment was appropriate. Only concern was fan only 1/8 inch away from radiator. This may seem strange but car seems to run smoother and the temperature gauge is just a "tic" above the midline. Warmup is faster too.

Questions & Answers

Question Posted by VAN SOU
Does it fit with the e36 M3 3.2L Euro Version ?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
I unfortunately would not be able to confirm, but I do believe the cooling system components and radiator would be the same on non US applications.
Question Posted by Tyler
Does it come with the auto trans oil cooler as a part of the radiator or is it separate?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
No, this accounts only for the coolant radiator and doesn't integrate the auto trans cooler.
Question Posted by Ricardo
Does it fit to my 325i automatic transmission version ?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
Assuming you are talking about an e36 325i. Yes, It will fit.

Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
