BMW E46 non-M (99-06) Mishimoto fan shroud with electric fan

The Mishimoto fan shroud E46 is a slim steel fan shroud with a 16 inch electric fan for the BMW E46 323i, 325i, 328i and 330i from 1999 to 2006. On automatic cars it replaces the failure-prone mechanical fan, on manual cars it outperforms the original electric fan.

Mishimoto measured up to 12.2 °C lower coolant outlet temperatures at idle on a manual E46. The fan moves more than 1,850 cfm and the shroud is at most 76 mm deep. This version has no controller; you connect the fan yourself with custom wiring.

Installation and delivery

The fan comes pre-mounted on the shroud. Remove the plastic parts of the original shroud and, on automatic cars, the mechanical fan, then mount the shroud on the radiator.

More air and more engine bay space: a slim e-fan that keeps your E46 up to 12.2 °C cooler at idle.

Why choose this Mishimoto fan shroud E46?
