The plastic tanks reduce the risk of corrosion and contribute to a lighter overall assembly. This radiator uses a cross flow design, which allows coolant to flow horizontally across the core, improving heat exchange efficiency compared to down flow types. With a core thickness of 1.26 inches (32 mm) and 85 fins every 4 inches, the radiator maximizes airflow and cooling capacity. The inlet diameter measures 38.5 mm, ensuring compatibility with the cooling system of the specified BMW models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible BMW Models and Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis radiator is compatible with a range of BMW vehicles, including:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW 320i and 320i xDrive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW 330e, 330i, 330i GT xDrive, and 330i xDrive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW 340i, 340i GT xDrive, and 340i xDrive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW 440i, 440i Gran Coupe, 440i xDrive, and 440i xDrive Gran Coupe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is designed to replace the original radiator in these models, providing consistent cooling performance without transmission or engine oil cooler integration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Issues Addressed by This Radiator\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverheating due to radiator core damage or clogging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoolant leaks from cracked or worn plastic tanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced cooling efficiency from bent or damaged fins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncompatibility with original radiator dimensions causing fitment issues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFailure of cross flow cooling design in older or damaged radiators\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen installing the Global Parts radiator 13788C, ensure the cooling system is fully drained before removal of the old radiator.
