Aluminum Thermostat Housing: New
Most E36 3 Series and E34 5 Series cars equipped with M50 motors have plastic thermostat housings. Over time, the constant heating and cooling can cause the plastic housings to weaken and break.

Hmmh, I hope one day they will make an integrated alu radiator with electric fan too.

My Indy did this last year when I rreplaced the water pump, belts and pulleys.

I also wish there was a better radiator. I put a new behr in about 45,000 miles ago because the plastic neck broke. I have heard that should plan on replacing the radiator AGAIN at 60,000 as preventative mantaintence!
