Water Pump Pulley (Topran) (116 118 316 N13) (BMW 1 Series F20/21 / 3 Series F30 / Mini R55 / R61) fits specified BMW and Mini models. Used in the cooling system to drive the water pump

Water Pump Pulley (Topran) (116 118 316 N13) (BMW 1 Series F20/21 / 3 Series F30 / Mini R55 / R61) is a mechanical component essential for the proper function of the vehicle’s water pump system. This pulley drives the water pump, which circulates coolant through the engine to maintain optimal operating temperature. It is designed for use with specific BMW models including the 1 Series F20 and F21, 3 Series F30, as well as Mini models R55 and R61, ensuring compatibility with these vehicle groups.

The pulley must be matched carefully to the existing water pump in your vehicle, particularly noting the N13 engine designation (116, 118, 316) to ensure it aligns with the correct drive system and belt type. When replacing this part, confirm the model and engine type against this listing to avoid compatibility issues. The water pump pulley plays a key role in the mechanical drive system, often linked via a belt to the engine crankshaft, transferring engine power to the pump.

For buyers with the listed BMW or Mini vehicles seeking a reliable replacement pulley, this unit offers an appropriate aftermarket option by Topran. Consider comparing the old pulley’s physical characteristics and part number references (if available) to confirm this match. Where uncertain, the sales desk can provide assistance or you may submit a detailed request for parts to ensure the correct match for your vehicle’s needs.
