Hi there. Ive just had an expansion tank go on my 2005 E85 2.5 which I ordered genuine replacement with the thermostat for the auto box from BMW parts company in Germany. In the process of changing it I see that my radiator has seen better days. The bottom has a bulge in the core. Any one used after market rads and have an opinion on them. I can get a genuine one from the company mentioned for around 200 euro. Auto doc France ones start at 50 euro and up. Thanks in advance.
 
Hi there. I fitted an EIS radiator from Euro Car Parts in April '22. I have a 2003 M54 2.5i. IIRC I only paid £65 or so. Seeing as EIS is a German brand I thought I'd take the chance at that price. It's done over 10,000 miles now and has so far been faultless :thumbsup: 20220405_132938.jpg20220405_132947~3.jpg20220405_133231.jpg20220405_150615~3.jpg20220405_165528.jpg
