Description
Mishimoto Fan Shroud With Controller Kit 99-06 BMW E46 provides electric cooling for BMW E46 models, eliminating the failure-prone mechanical fan and delivering improved reliability and cooling control.
This kit replaces the stock mechanical fan and is designed to outperform the stock electric fan on manual transmission models, targeting reduced parasitic loss and more consistent thermal management under varied driving conditions.
- Eliminates stock mechanical fan — removes the primary point of failure in the original setup, reducing maintenance cycles and the risk of cooling-system downtime.
- Outperforms stock electric fan on manual transmission models — provides higher-performing electric cooling where the factory solution is less effective, improving temperature control during demanding use.
- Direct-bolt design — the kit “bolts directly to your stock or Mishimoto E46 Perfo” for a secure installation that preserves mounting integrity and alignment.
- Includes controller — integrated control circuitry (included in the kit name) allows precise management of fan operation to match engine cooling requirements and driving conditions.
Designed and supplied by Mishimoto, a reputable motorsports-oriented thermal management brand, this kit focuses on functional improvements: enhanced reliability, consistent cooling performance, and a simplified install compared with mechanical fan assemblies.
What this delivers: a durable electric cooling solution that reduces mechanical failure points, offers targeted cooling performance for manual-transmission E46s, and uses a bolted fitment method for secure installation.
