Radiator, Behr - E53 X5 3.0i Automatic

The OEM Radiator for your E53 X5 3.0 is an ideal replacement, whether for a failed or failing radiator, or simply as a preventative cooling system overhaul.

The radiator on X5 6-cylinder models is a known failure item and can leave you stranded. If your radiator hasn't been replaced in the last 5 years or 60k miles, we recommend inspecting it or replacing it as a preventative measure. Be particularly sure to inspect the plastic inlet / outlet hose connections. The plastic on the E36 radiator gets brittle and fragile over the years as it sees cold and hot temps and the plastic breaks down. This can lead to a sudden crack and loss of coolant. Avoiding a blown radiator and overheating is one of the best ways to ensure long life for your X5 engine.

Only for cars with Automatic transmission. This includes all 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006 BMW X5 3.0 liter Automatics. For full BMW fitment information or for assistance from one of our BMW experts, we recommend calling us 877-639-9648.
