Title: Can M3 Radiator Fit my 318is
Post by: halcron on June 30, 2008, 08:11:42 PM
I have a e36 318is. My radiator is quite old and I am thinking of changing to a new radiator for improved cooling and to prevent leaks.

I have seen M3 radiators on ebay.

Can these radiators fit into my car? Also, I notice there is no coolant expansion tank unlike mine. I scouted around and found tunermotorsports selling the expansion tank.

Does this mean that if I install the M3 radiator and expansion tank + necessary plumbling I am good to go?
