CSF Euro Spec High Performance All Aluminum Engine Oil Cooler - BMW E36
Click Here for the Full Press Release & Additional Product Details CSF designed this oil cooler as a true 1-to-1 replacement for the OEM unit — same mounting points, hardware, and lines. For EU E36 M3 or USDM Z3M owners, it's a straightforward drop-in fit. E36 models that didn't come with a factory oil cooler can add one using the BimmerWorld Euro Oil Cooler Bracket Kit, paired with an OEM-spec radiator or CSF's High-Performance All-Aluminum Radiator (#3054). The factory cooler uses a Tube & Fin design — fine for cooling performance, but not the most durable construction. CSF upgraded to a Bar & Plate core for added durability, particularly valuable given how close to the ground these coolers sit and the track abuse they can take. The "Aero-Flow" bar design keeps weight down while maintaining strength and airflow, with turbulated multi-louvered fins to boost heat exchange rates. Features Unique top/bottom dual-pass design for maximum surface area and flow Fully TIG-welded extruded end tank design for superior reliability and durability Turbulated heavy-duty Bar/Plate design for maximum reliability and durability 6 rows of cooling with a high-density multi-louvered fin pitch Designed to work with OE or CSF All-Aluminum Radiator (#3054) OE-style black finish Accepts factory oil-line connections Mounts using OE brackets or BimmerWorld Bracket Kit (#TEN3631201) Uses OE E36 Euro-spec oil cooler lines (Pipe) — BMW PN: 17212227235 Fitment Year Range Make Chassis Model Trim Engine 1998 BMW E36 323i - 2.5L L6 1998–1999 BMW E36 323is - 2.5L L6 1992–1995 BMW E36 325i - 2.5L L6 1992–1995 BMW E36 325is - 2.5L L6 1996–1998 BMW E36 328i - 2.8L L6 1996–1999 BMW E36 328is - 2.8L L6 1995 BMW E36 M3 - 3.0L L6 1996–1999 BMW E36 M3 - 3.2L L6 1999–2000 BMW E36/7/8 Z3 Coupe 2.8L L6 2001–2002 BMW E36/7/8 Z3 Coupe 3.0L L6 1999–2002 BMW E36/7/8 Z3 M Coupe 3.2L L6 1998 BMW E36/7/8 Z3 M Roadster 3.2L L6 1999–2002 BMW E36/7/8 Z3 M Roadster 3.2L L6 1997–1998 BMW E36/7/8 Z3 Roadster 2.8L L6 1999–2000 BMW E36/7/8 Z3 Roadster 2.8L L6 2001–2002 BMW E36/7/8 Z3 Roadster 3.0L L6
