This part is listed by BMW as BMW part number 11537848505 (11 53 7 848 505) and is described as the coolant hose from the engine block to the auxiliary water pump on F87 M2 Competition, F80 M3, and F82 M4 with the S55 engine. Includes a new o-ring.
Rubber hoses are ideal when new, as they allow some movement and flexibility during driving. The only problem is that they begin to degrade as they age and can eventually fail. Rubber breaks down and can split and does not hold up well to other chemicals such as engine oil or fuel. The plastic clips and metal retaining clamps are strong but are only one-time use. Once removed they never seem to seal as well, leading to a leak soon after. A new hose is recommended any time the old one is disconnected (unless it's less than a year old). We highly recommend that you replace your cooling system hoses as a preventative measure before they fail in order to save you from further headaches and expenses.
This is a Genuine BMW S55 turbo cooling hose with a two year warranty. Buying a Genuine part will usually be more expensive than an OEM or aftermarket brand but you are assured that it meets BMW's designs for fitment, performance, and longevity. It will also be the very latest design, incorporating any updates or revisions that an aftermarket brand typically will ignore.
