If ordering from outside of North America, please include a note with your vehicle's VIN # or production date, model number, & engine type. If you don't see your model listed in this listing or our other listings; please contact us, and we'll assemble a kit for your needs.
These o-rings seal the BMW press & clip hose connections. Excellent quality & made in the USA. This kit also contains the required number of the following the green o-ring for the sensor inside the lower radiator hose (13621743299), and the transmission & power steering oil cooler o-rings (17211742636).
***Due to feedback from customers, kits for the M52 and M54 engines no longer contain the rarely needed 4 x BMW Part # 1531435808. Instead, we have replaced them a few extras of other commonly needed ones because in the rare instance that you're removing the coolant pipes, you'll more than likely need to replace them with new ones that come with new o-rings already installed on their ends. If, however, you need these o-rings, please send us a note with your order or message us, and we'll send them along at no additional charge. As always, we use the optimal compound for this application.
With trial and testing on vehicles we ourselves service, our kits optimize performance, quality, and value through the use of multiple compounds (NBR, HNBR, EPDM). All the green o-rings in our kits are peroxide cured EPDM, which we use in the most vulnerable locations for its excellent high temperature performance (150C/300F) and chemical resistance to glycol based coolants. We have transitioned all of our kits to more of these EPDM o-rings for the most vulnerable and highly stressed connections. Also included is a packet of water based lube, which can be used on all coolant connections.
When encountering o-rings of identical size, green ones may be used only for coolant connections.
Do not use petroleum based lubricants on any coolant connections!
If
you are uncertain about which kit you need, please send us the last 7 digits of
your VIN to verify compatibility.
