If you own a BMW E36, you know that keeping your cooling system in top condition is crucial for maintaining that legendary performance. The stock expansion tank is notorious for failing after years of constant temperature cycling, leaving you stranded or facing expensive repairs. Mishimoto's aluminum expansion tank solves this common problem once and for all, giving you peace of mind whether you're driving to work, hitting the track, or cruising mountain roads.
Crafted from high-quality TIG-welded aluminum, this expansion tank is built to withstand the harsh conditions under your hood. The engineers at Mishimoto didn't stop at durability - they designed a brilliant CNC-machined dipstick that serves a dual purpose: it accurately measures coolant levels while also functioning as a bleeder valve. This innovative design ensures you can properly fill your cooling system without air pockets that can cause overheating.
Beyond its functional benefits, the polished aluminum finish transforms your engine bay from utilitarian to impressive. Whether you're a daily driver or a weekend enthusiast, this expansion tank adds that touch of performance flair that shows you care about every detail of your BMW. The sleek design complements other Mishimoto components and makes your 3-Series stand out from the crowd at meets, shows, or simply when you pop the hood for friends.
Installation is straightforward with this direct-fit replacement for the stock expansion tank. It's designed to work perfectly with both the original BMW components and Mishimoto's Performance Fan Shroud Kit, so you can upgrade your cooling system incrementally or all at once. The precision engineering means you won't need to modify anything - just unbox, install, and enjoy the improved reliability and aesthetics.
Like all Mishimoto products, this expansion tank comes with their lifetime warranty. That means you're not just buying a part - you're investing in long-term reliability backed by a company that stands behind their workmanship. Whether you're maintaining a pristine 325i or building a track-ready M3, you can trust this expansion tank to perform flawlessly for years to come.
