Product Information
Mishimoto's performance aluminum radiator is a direct-fit upgrade for manual-transmission BMW E30/E36 325i, 328i, 323i and M3 (1988-1999), replacing the brittle plastic-laden stock cooling parts prone to coolant leaks and overheating. Aircraft-quality aluminum end tanks are precision TIG-welded to a brazed aluminum core, and all factory overflow and temperature-sensor ports are retained for use with OEM sensors and hoses. It includes a magnetic drain plug with dowty seal and works with the stock mechanical fan and shrouding.
