The OEM Radiator for your F10 535d and F02 740d is an ideal replacement, whether for a failed or failing radiator, or simply as a preventative cooling system overhaul.
The original radiator is a potential failure item and can leave you stranded. If your radiator hasn't been replaced in the last 5 years or 60k miles, we recommend inspecting it or replacing it as a preventative measure. Be particularly sure to inspect the plastic inlet / outlet hose connections. The plastic on the radiator gets brittle and fragile over the years as it sees cold and hot temps and the plastic breaks down. This can lead to a sudden crack and loss of coolant. Avoiding a blown radiator and overheating is one of the best ways to ensure long life for BMW.
This radiator, BMW part number 17118509175 (17 11 8 509 175) is the latest version, which replaces the obsolete/superseded version, BMW part number 17117805627.
