CSF E30 Group A / DTM Style Race-Spec Oil Cooler
$509.00
While most of the engineering that went into the first M3/3-Series was top of line at the time, there is plenty of room for improvement. The cooling systems on the E30 are fairly adequate for normal to semi spirited driving. However, the factory oil cooler can still struggle to keep up under aggressive driving or track days. The vehicle is also old enough that many of the factory systems really need to be replaced.
While your original system may still be functional, it is likely not in the best shape. Dented, clogged, and weathered coolers just can’t perform like a new cooler. Even then, the old tube and fin design don’t compare to the durability and performance of a bar and plate design.
CSF understands that most owners don’t want to change the look of their Bavarian classics at this point. That’s why the E30 Group A / DTM Oil Cooler was designed to fit in the factory location with no custom mounting hardware necessary. The CSF Oil Cooler offers superior cooling capacity, modern technology, and costs less than a genuine OE replacement.

What is the warranty?
This oil cooler is covered by a 2-year limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, to the original purchaser of the vehicle in which it was installed.
Does installation require modification?
No. The cooler was designed to fit in the factory location with no custom mounting hardware necessary, so the look of the car is unchanged.
What fittings are included?
It comes complete with a fitting kit for both OEM-style and -10 AN male connections.
Why upgrade from the factory cooler?
The factory oil cooler can struggle under aggressive driving or track days, and most original units are now dented, clogged or weathered. The older tube-and-fin design also cannot match the durability and performance of CSF's bar and plate core.
