Our Stage 1 Cooling System Overhaul Kit for E36 323is/325i/328i and M3 includes all the common preventative maintenance parts to keep your cooling system from failing at an inconvenient time. Unlike our Stage 2 and 3 upgrades, this kit consists of cost-efficient OEM-type replacement components for a 1:1 swap of your stock system. This overhaul service typically needs to be performed at 80-100,000 miles with stock parts due to plastic fatigue on the radiator tanks and thermostat housing.
Stage 1 Kit includes:
- CSF aluminum radiator: thicker core for added capacity/cooling, bottom oil cooler attachment points.
- URO water pump with metal impeller
- URO upper and lower radiator hoses
- Aluminum thermostat housing with gasket
- Slightly cooler 88° thermostat with o-ring
- Radiator/expansion tank cap
This kit fits M50, M52, S50US, and S52 6-cylinder E36 3-Series cars - 323is, 325i, 328i, and M3.
WYIT: This is not all of the parts that could be replaced in the E36 cooling system. There are several other "While You're In There" parts that can also be replaced, including belts, pulleys, fan & clutch, expansion tank, and possibly more. Contact us if you would like to discuss additional parts to possibly include.
Coolant: we do not include coolant/antifreeze in this package even though fresh fluid is required. We do sell BMW coolant, and other brands, but due to shipping costs you may want to source your own coolant locally. Remember to mix coolant with distilled water.
