Product Information
Thermostat replacement kit for S54 powered BMW's.
Your BMW's thermostat controls the flow of coolant into the engine. This is critical for ensuring that the engines temperature remains regulated. Your S54 powered BMW's features a more traditional thermostat this is purely mechanical and is designed to open at 80° C.
Replacing your S54 thermostat is fairly easy. First, you must drain the engine block of coolant via the engine block drain plug on the side of the engine. Once the engine has been drained of coolant you can reinstall the drain plug with a new crush washer, part number 07119963225. Torque on the drain plug 25 Nm (18.5 ft lbs).
Remove the three screws on thermostat housing and remove thermostat housing along with thermostat. Replace thermostat o-ring, p/n 11531318402, and water pipe o-ring, p/n 11537830709, while keeping sealing surfaces clean from dust and debris. Insert new thermostat into water pump and and reinstall thermostat housing with three securing screws. Add the appropriate mix of coolant into the engine and perform bleeding procedure.
WARNING: Proposition 65 informationThermostats are a simple device which regulates coolant flow through the engine. When cold it will stay closed, stopping coolant flow and helping the engine warm up faster. Once up to temperature, it will open and allow normal coolant flow and maintain proper engine temperature. Always install with the 'jiggle pin' bleed valve at 12 o'clock when possible.
For many applications, multiple temperature ratings are available. These ratings denote when the thermostat opens, and in extreme climates different temperature ratings can be used to assist the vehicle in maintaining proper temperatures. In very hot desert climates for instance, a lower temperature rated thermostat may be preferred.
There are two types of thermostat failures:
Thermostat stuck open (most common): Coolant will flow through the engine constantly from cold, preventing the engine from reaching operating temperature. Usually this means a rich mixture resulting in poor fuel mileage and potential catalytic converter damage.
Thermostat stuck closed: If the thermostat is stuck closed it will restrict flow into the engine resulting in an overheating condition, resulting in potential catastrophic engine damage.
