ECS Performance Coolant Outlet Hose Kit | ES4164362

Some of the biggest issues when owning a BMW can come from cooling system components. Even after many years of improvement, the same failure is seen with the plastic fittings and adapters from years of hot to cold temperature fluctuation. The N52/M54 engine sees failure at the plastic adapter connecting the thermostat hose to the cylinder head, this adapter simply shears off at the end of the barbed fitting.

The engineering team here at ECS decided a billet aluminum piece was a much better option to contend with the temperature fluctuation, and since other offerings on the market want you to modify your OE hose to be reused, we even developed a silicone replacement hose. These 2 pieces can be purchased separately if you decide to reuse your existing OE hose or in a package kit together for a single click upgrade.

• Silicone offers reduced thermal conductivity as well as improved resistance to ozone and UV degradation for improved performance and durability.
