Detailed Description

Saleri PA386 is an engine water pump for BMW cooling system repair and replacement. The 67 mm flange diameter is the key identifying specification, and the pump uses one paper seal for the sealing interface. This part is listed for classic and performance BMW models including the M5, 735i, 735iL, 635CSi, M6, 535i, and 528i, making PA386 a relevant choice when servicing the original cooling layout on these vehicles.

This part cross-references Graf PA380 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Coolant leakage from a worn water pump assembly
• Overheating caused by reduced coolant circulation
• Noise from a failing pump bearing or impeller wear
• Cooling system service on BMW M5, 735i, and 635CSi models
• Replacement of a pump with the correct 67 mm flange specification

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the flange diameter before installation to confirm the pump matches the engine configuration. Inspect the mating surfaces, cooling hoses, thermostat, and coolant condition during service, and replace the seal only after the surfaces are clean and flat. Proper bleeding of the cooling system is important after installation to help prevent trapped air.

Quality Assurance

Saleri supplies cooling system components for automotive service applications, and PA386 is built to the listed dimensional and sealing specifications for the referenced BMW fitments. Confirm part number PA386 and the 67 mm flange diameter against the removed unit before installation.
