Product Description

This THERMOSTAT 95°C is a crucial component within the cooling system of certain BMW models, designed to regulate engine temperature by controlling coolant flow. Featuring a robust black plastic housing and integrated spring-loaded thermostat element, it ensures your engine operates within the optimal temperature range for performance and longevity. The thermostat opens at 95°C, allowing coolant to circulate and prevent overheating during demanding driving conditions. Multiple hose connections and secure mounting points make it a direct replacement for compatible BMW applications.

This thermostat is intended for use in BMW vehicles, specifically models such as the E36 318is with the M44 engine. Always confirm your BMW’s model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure correct fitment. If you are unsure, contact MiMi Auto Parts for assistance.

Common symptoms of a failing thermostat include engine overheating, fluctuating temperature gauge readings, poor heater performance, coolant leaks around the thermostat housing, or the engine taking too long to reach operating temperature. You may also notice increased fuel consumption or the engine running hotter or colder than usual.

Replacement is recommended if you experience any of these symptoms or during routine cooling system maintenance. Timely replacement helps prevent serious engine damage caused by overheating or inefficient temperature control.
