Coolant Water Flange Pipe for BMW OEM 11537560130

Product Overview

A Water Flange for BMW vehicles, held against OEM 11537560130 and 11537505055. In service the part joins several coolant lines at the cylinder head and usually carries the temperature sensor and its seals. This part joins several coolant lines at the cylinder head and usually carries the temperature sensor and its seals. The failure modes that bring it across a parts counter are warped mating faces and stripped sensor threads, reported as a coolant drip at the head, low coolant warnings and an intermittent temperature signal. The part belongs to a cooling-system catalogue of more than 4000 types, which is the practical reason buyers consolidate a mixed pallet with us rather than splitting it across suppliers.

Key Benefits

• One reference set on every document — OEM 11537560130 and 11537505055 appears on the quotation, the packing list and the carton label, so a warehouse can check a delivery without opening the box.
• Mixed pallets instead of single lines — A cooling-system range of more than 4000 types means a slow-moving line can travel with fast movers instead of being ordered on its own.
• Tooling route for obsolete references — Where the reference is out of production, we develop the mould from the sample you supply rather than turning the enquiry away.
• Checked on the features that matter — Inspection concentrates on the port count, the bolt pattern and whether the sensor and seals are included — the dimensions that put a part back in the box if they are wrong.

Application Scenarios

Scheduled cooling-system overhaul

The vehicle is in for a coolant leak and the workshop replaces the whole branch at once rather than chasing the next failure in a month. With 11537560130 on the list the rest of the coolant distribution point can be priced at the same time.

Warranty-expired fleet maintenance

A fleet past dealer coverage moves to independent supply and needs the same reference coverage at a working price. This reference, 11537560130, is bought for exactly that situation on BMW vehicles.

Counter stock for a busy platform

BMW volume in the region justifies holding the line on the shelf instead of ordering it in per job. This reference, 11537560130, is bought for exactly that situation on BMW vehicles.

Who It Is For

• Fleet and bus operators — running BMW vehicles past warranty and buying cooling-system parts by the box to keep downtime short. 11537560130 earns its shelf space through repeat demand on BMW platforms.
• Radiator and cooling specialists — rebuilding cooling systems and sourcing the hoses, flanges and housings for a platform in one go. They order 11537560130 by the carton and reorder against the same number.
• Exporters and consolidators — shipping mixed cooling-system pallets into Europe, the Middle East and South America. 11537560130 earns its shelf space through repeat demand on BMW platforms.

Problems It Solves

Unclear compound

PA66 mouldings crack rather than weep, so a hairline split can empty a coolant system quickly once it opens. For this water flange the answer is the reference, 11537560130, on every document.

Reference mismatch

Visually identical parts carry different connector geometry between model years. Quoting OEM 11537560130 and 11537505055 fixes the identity before money moves. With 11537560130 the check is the port count, the bolt pattern and whether the sensor and seals are included, and it happens before despatch.

Split ordering

Sourcing one hose from one supplier and the matching flange from another doubles the freight and the paperwork for the same repair. For BMW buyers it is the difference between a stocked line and a credit note on 11537560130.

Technical Features

The part serves the coolant distribution point and joins several coolant lines at the cylinder head and usually carries the temperature sensor and its seals. It is moulded in PA66 glass-filled nylon, chosen because glass-filled PA66 gives a rigid pipe that holds its shape against vibration and keeps clamp faces dimensionally stable at under-bonnet temperature.

Used where the part must hold a fixed geometry and carry bolted or clipped interfaces. PA66 mouldings crack rather than weep, so a hairline split can empty a coolant system quickly once it opens.

Specifications

Values marked TBC are not stated on the source catalogue. They are confirmed in writing on the quotation rather than estimated here.

Comparison With the Alternatives

Use Guide

1. Confirm the reference

   Match OEM 11537560130 and 11537505055 against the number on the part you removed. Do not match on outline alone.

2. Check the interfaces

   Compare the port count, the bolt pattern and whether the sensor and seals are included before the vehicle is stripped further.

3. Inspect on arrival

   Look for transit damage on sealing faces and connectors. PA66 mouldings crack rather than weep, so a hairline split can empty a coolant system quickly once it opens.

4. Fit with the original clamp style

   Reuse the clamp type the BMW platform was designed around, and fit any seal or O-ring supplied with 11537560130 rather than carrying the old one over.

5. Pressure check before handover

   Refill, bleed the circuit and check for hairline cracks in the moulding at working temperature before the vehicle leaves.
