CRP Automotive now offers a new, upgraded Rein Coolant Hose Metal Connector (CRP Part No. CHU0929), specifically designed for popular BMW and MINI models. This new connector is compatible with 2014-2021 BMW 4-cylinder 2.0L engines and 2014-2019 MINI 3-cylinder 1.5L and 4-cylinder 2.0L engines.
Addressing Common Issues
Feedback from the CRP Automotive Innovation Council revealed that the original equipment (OE) plastic connectors used in these BMW and MINI engines often suffer from brittleness and cracking. These failures are typically caused by repeated thermal cycling and hydrolysis, leading to unreliable performance and increased maintenance needs.
Upgraded Design for Greater Reliability
In response to these challenges, the new Rein Coolant Hose Connector features full aluminum construction. This upgrade provides a more robust alternative to the standard plastic connectors, aiming to prevent the common failure points experienced with OE parts. Additionally, it includes the necessary gasket, simplifying the installation process.
FEATURES & BENEFITS:
– Direct OE Replacement: Designed to be a direct replacement for the OE flange, ensuring hassle-free installation.
– Aluminum Construction: Made from durable aluminum, offering improved longevity and resistance to the factors that cause OE parts to fail.
– Superior Materials: The use of high-quality materials and upgraded construction extend the service life of the connector, reducing the need for frequent replacements and lowering maintenance costs.
– Included Gasket: Each Rein connector comes with the required gaske for easy installation.
