Description
The Mishimoto Performance Fan Shroud Kit (MMFS-E36-92K) is a direct-fit electric fan and shroud assembly engineered specifically for the BMW E36 chassis, built to replace the factory mechanical fan with a 16-inch high-flow electric fan that moves over 1850 CFM of air. Finished in Stealth Black, this steel shroud bolts straight to the stock radiator or either of Mishimoto’s E36 aluminum radiators, giving E36 owners a cleaner, more dependable cooling setup for the engine bay.
Because the factory mechanical fan on the E36 platform is known to be failure-prone, Mishimoto designed this fan shroud kit to eliminate it entirely, pairing a slim 16-inch electric fan with a powder-coated steel shroud for high-volume airflow through the radiator. The kit ships with all hardware required for installation and remains compatible with the stock expansion tank, so there’s no need to source extra parts to complete the swap. For drivers who want more precise control over coolant temperature, the kit can optionally include the Mishimoto Adjustable Fan Controller Kit (MMFAN-CNTL-U), which uses both NPT and probe-type sensors to help manage fan operation, including at idle. Kits ordered without the fan controller will require custom wiring. As with other Mishimoto cooling products, this fan shroud kit is backed by the Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty.
