escription

This premium-quality upper radiator hose is manufactured to exact original equipment specifications to ensure a perfect fit and reliable engine cooling performance. Constructed from heavy-duty, heat-resistant EPDM rubber with reinforced textile braiding, this hose is engineered to withstand extreme engine bay temperatures, high system pressures, and electrochemical degradation caused by modern coolant mixtures. Complete with precision-molded plastic quick-connect couplers and pre-installed internal O-rings, replacing a brittle, swollen, or leaking upper hose prevents catastrophic coolant loss and protects your engine from severe overheating damage.

Application Note: Specifically engineered for the Upper (Inlet) cooling circuit on 6-cylinder M52TU and M54 petrol engine variants across all E46 body styles (Sedan, Coupé, Convertible, Touring, and Compact). Important Fitment Note: Fits both RWD and xDrive (AWD) 6-cylinder petrol models. This hose features BMW-style quick-connect locking fittings. Always ensure the wire retaining clips are securely locked into place during installation. When replacing this hose, it is highly recommended to inspect the plastic coolant expansion tank, thermostat housing, and water pump for signs of aging, as these are common failure points on the E46 platform. Bleed the cooling system thoroughly according to manufacturer procedures after installation.
