Description

BMW E36 (92-99) Mishimoto fan shroud with electric fan

The Mishimoto fan shroud E36 replaces the mechanical fan of the six-cylinder BMW E36 with a slim 16 inch electric fan in a steel shroud. This eliminates one of the best-known weak spots of the E36: the viscous clutch and fan that can fail at high rpm.

The fan moves more than 1,850 cfm of air, over 3,100 m³ per hour, and comes pre-mounted on the shroud. This version has no controller: you control the fan yourself with custom wiring, for example via an existing circuit or a separate fan controller.
