CSF Radiators 8218: BMW E30 Group A / DTM Race Style Oil Cooler

The CSF 8218 Oil Cooler is designed specifically for those who appreciate the blend of performance and reliability in their BMW E30. Crafted with a focus on both durability and efficiency, this oil cooler is rooted in the successful design principles of BMW's racing heritage from the late 1980s.

One of the standout features of the CSF 8218 is its robust Bar/Plate construction, which is engineered to withstand the rigors of both street and track use. Customers have noted that the cooler not only fits seamlessly into their vehicles but also performs exceptionally well under stress. “I installed this cooler in my E30, and I can already feel the difference in oil temps during spirited drives,” shared a satisfied customer.

The cooler's innovative "Aero-Flow" design optimizes air flow while reducing weight, allowing for better heat dissipation. The high-density turbulated fins increase the efficiency of heat exchange, making this cooler about 50% larger than the factory unit. This means increased fluid capacity and core surface area, enhancing overall performance. “It’s a solid upgrade for anyone looking to push their E30 a little harder,” another user commented.

Constructed entirely from aluminum, the CSF 8218 is built to last. The satin black powder coat finish not only adds an OEM look but also provides extra protection against corrosion and debris. Installation is straightforward with a drop-in fit, and it comes complete with a fitting kit that accommodates both OEM style and -10 AN male connections.

  • Core Material: Aluminum

CSF warranty is applicable only to the original owner of the vehicle. Original paper work verifying the proof of purchase and pre-installation cooling system checklist signed by the professional installer is required to process warranty claims.

All warranty claims should be directed to the point of purchase.

Take care of your radiator, as under circumstances listed below the warranty will be void.

If the radiator is installed and is returned deformed (bulging tanks, warped core etc.), this is an indication that the radiator is the victim of some other problem and not the cause. The deformation is a result of the radiator being subjected to extremely high pressure and or temperature caused by any of the following reasons:Defective Pressure Cap, Defective Head Gasket, Defective Temperature gauge (incorrect readings), Defective Water Pump etc. Such units are not covered under the warranty.

If a radiator seems to have a “fit problem” there is the possibility that there is some confusion about a multi-fit radiator that might look different. Your nearest CSF WD can clarify the application, just give them a call. A perceived fit problem is not covered under warranty.

If a unit is damaged in shipping, please file a claim with the carrier. Damages caused during shipping, installation or handling are not covered under warranty.

Any repairs or alterations to the unit will automatically void the warranty.

Any form of abuse, including the use of improper coolant mixtures, damage caused by steam, corrosion etc and use on commercial vehicles voids the warranty. It is the vehicle owners’ responsibility to maintain the cooling system as specified in the owners manual.
