Thermostat 97°C (3.0 N52 N52N 35IX N54) (BMW X5 E70 / X6 E71) is designed for temperature regulation in the cooling system of selected BMW models, specifically the X5 E70 and X6 E71 with 3.0-litre engines from the N52, N52N, 35IX, and N54 series. This part ensures the engine maintains an optimal operating temperature by controlling coolant flow based on the thermostat’s 97°C trigger point.

The thermostat sits within the engine’s cooling circuit and opens or closes to either allow coolant to circulate through the radiator or to bypass it, thus preventing engine overheating or overcooling. When comparing this unit to the one in your vehicle, check the specific thermostat temperature rating of 97°C along with the compatible engine codes to ensure proper match.

This thermostat is important for maintaining engine efficiency and performance, as well as avoiding potential damage caused by extreme temperature fluctuations. Buyers should verify the thermostat’s fitment against their vehicle’s engine designation (N52, N52N, 35IX, N54) and chassis model (X5 E70 or X6 E71) before purchase.

  • Thermostat temperature rating: 97°C
  • Compatible with BMW 3.0-litre engines: N52, N52N, 35IX, N54
