Oil Cooling (if equipped)
An oil cooler is used in hot countries. The oil cooler is located in front of the radiator above
the A/C condenser. The engine oil flows from the oil pump through a channel in the
crankcase to a connection on the generator support. The generator support has an oil ther-
mostat. A wax element in the oil thermostat continuously opens the inflow to the oil cooler
when the oil temperature is between 100 ºC to 130 ºC.
Some of the engine oil always flows past the oil thermostat and through the engine with-
out being cooled, even when the oil thermostat is fully open. This ensures a minimum
amount of oil is supplied when the cooler is faulty. A modified generator support, without
connections for the oil thermostat, is fitted to vehicles which do not have an oil cooler.
Technical Data - Lubrication System
The recommended oil is BMW High Performance 5W-30 Synthetic Oil
