BMW 325i Schnitzer e36

Recommended Posts

Bought this baby quite a while ago and just wanted to post some pics and what not as ive just joined. Typical Schnitzer but I have had an electronic fan installed as the old cooling system was below par and overheated the car (As i was told by the previous owner).

Very nice purchase! Looks genuine too?

I actually find the stock A/C front fan on full is sufficient to cool my setup, but the main fan is a hydraulic one that runs off the engine.

Have you replaced the plastic impellered water pump? That would be the first thing to do with overheating issues. Then get the viscous coupling checked on the engine fan. They do wear out and the fan doesn't spin as fast as it should.

The original cooling system completely failed so the previous owner installed an electric fan hooked up to the ignition. This also failed because he did it on the cheap and just threw the wrong relay and conductor in. Got everything rewired now and runs amazing.
