Complete Cooling System Overhaul Package - 1987 E30 325i/is/ic

This Cooling Kit for the 1987 E30 325i covers all of the major replacement parts for the original cooling system. We start with an OEM Behr radiator and then you choose the additional parts you need to replace next. Add hoses, sensors, water pumps, thermostats, gaskets, hose clamps, and more. We also sell the correct Original BMW antifreeze to finish off the job.

Of the systems in your E30, the cooling system is not where you want to let slide or skip maintenance. Almost nothing will ruin your day more than an overheating engine and it's usually at the absolute worse time. Maintaining the cooling system is easy and you can do most or all of the work yourself with ordinary tools. There's no reason not to address a leaky or out of date cooling system right away.

Top Turner Tip!
On the 1987 325i, pay particular attention to the alternator fan blades and the clearance to the lower radiator hose. As the engine shifts on worn motor mounts, and the alternator twists on worn bushings, the cooling blades can slice right through the hose. Replace the alternator bushings and use our motor mount reinforcements. Or convert the whole system to the 1988+ cooling system which moves the lower hose to the other side of the radiator.
To save you time and money, we recommend replacing major components with related parts.
