Product Information

Comprehensive overhaul kit, includes everything you need to refresh your E46's cooling system

A lot has been written on the E46 3-series cooling system. In our opinion no source is as definitive as Mango's thread on E46Fanatics. Not only is this resource great for first time BMW owners it's also great for seasoned E46 owners who have dealt with failed expansion tanks, cracked radiators, and failed water pumps.

This kit has been built around the premise of that thread and includes all major cooling system parts that are notorious problems on the E46 3-series. Included in this kit are the recommended parts from the E46Fanatics thread. This kit features a Saleri OEM water pump, Modine/CoolXpert OEM expansion tank, Wahler thermostat, and Nissens radiator. Additionally, we include OEM Contitech drive belts, OEM Rein upper/lower radiator hoses, and other supporting hardware.

The only thing not included in this kit are the belt tensioners or pulleys. Due to mixed installation of pulleys/tensioners and also because many will have different replacement intervals on these components we have decided to keep these as option. Please see the links below for the belt tensioners and idler pulley.

Add on options:
11287841228 - Main Drive Belt Idler Pulley
11287838797 - Main Drive Belt Tensioner (Hydraulic)
- or -
11281427252 - Main Drive Belt Tensioner (Mechanical)
11287512758 - A/C Belt Tensioner

Cooling System Service Kit

A cooling system service involves checking and replenishing the coolant fluid in a vehicle's engine cooling system, typically including inspecting hoses, belts, the radiator, water pump, and thermostat for leaks, damage, or wear, and replacing the coolant with fresh fluid if necessary; failure symptoms include a rising temperature gauge on the dashboard, visible coolant leaks, steam coming from under the hood, low coolant levels, and a sweet smell near the engine

Cooling System Service Kit Failure Symptoms
  • Overheating engine: The most significant sign, indicated by a high-temperature gauge reading
  • Coolant leaks: Visible puddles under the car, especially near the radiator or hoses
  • Steam from under the hood: A sign of boiling coolant

Cooling System Overhaul Kit
My car will be 23 years old in a few months. I last replaced the radiator, expansion tank, water pump and thermostat about 10 years ago when the original radiator sprung a leak. This time I opted to change every component that coolant flowed through, especially any rubber or plastic component. This should carry me for the next 100,000 miles when I reach 426,000 miles.

Rein Expansion tank
I received the rein expansion tank as part of the cooling kit. Everything was fine except for the expansion tank. The Rein tank pissed coolant after being installed twice. I installed the original tank from 2005 and had no issues. I bought the Nessen tank to replace the Rein tank .

E46 cooling system
This kit was amazing, it had everything I needed for the entire cooling overhaul. The parts are of good OEM or better quality, I would definitely buy this again if need be

Omissions
I was disappointed to find out mid job that this kit had two odd omissions. Why does it give the temp sensor with the new coolant pipe but not the level sensor with the new reservoir? Also you get the top and bottom hoses to the reservoir but not the hose that goes into the middle of the reservoir.

New car
Absolutely perfect to insure your new car has all the right cooling parts up to snuff. FCPeuro has worked with forum guru's to make sure you get all the parts you need. Its a relatively easy job to put all these parts on your car, you can also see how the rest of your engine is doing when your down there. This set is designed to make sure your car is running right, don't be fooled by other aftermarket pieces, this is all you need to get your cooling system in order so you can have fun all while knowing you will be staying cool. Thank you FCPeuro for looking out for us enthusiasts!

Perfect kit at fantastic price.
Just installed this entire cooling system kit this past weekend on my E46 325xi. Everything fit perfectly (including the radiator which had me worried) and the car runs so much better than it did before. Everything from this kit is made of high quality parts and this makes me feel so much better about driving this car now that I've taken care of this until next time.

Great stuff
Mango’s thread is THE definitive one for all your E46 cooling system needs. Already having been through this once before with an E46 my philosophy is replace it while you’re already there. This kit is perfect and takes care of all the biggest weak points on this cars cooling system.

Overall good kit
Pretty good kit, everything looked/felt good quality. I installed everything fairly easily. Haven’t put it through a lot of stress yet but I’m sure it’ll last for a good bit of miles

No issues since purchase
Bought this kit about 6 months ago and my car has had no issues with overheating whatsoever since then. Highly recommended kit to anyone looking to overhaul their cooking system

Question Posted by Andrew
Why is a new fan not included?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
This is a baseline kit, therefore a new fan is not seen as necessary.
Question Posted by fadi
Does this come with coolant as well? Or would I have to buy it separately?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
Coolant is not included.
