On rockauto website, the right part # when selecting the m3 is 459160 (40$) vs the 880060.
Any thoughts? Anyone bought this yet? Thx |

Would using an aftermarket oil thermostat work with warm ups or would this just defeat the point?

Can you share any difference in engine warm up time and or difference in oil pressure?
Strangely enough when using the MPorium undershield I saw a noticeable drop in temperature which was a very appreciated unexpected side benefit. With Stage II I haven't run into any overheating issues yet but will likely do this. I'm just concerned about extended warmup times while the 10w-60 is nice and thick with the perfect bearing clearances we have

Touching base on this. "This is not recommended for street cars without the addition of a performance inline thermostat. Drive conservatively and allow extra time for the oil to reach optimal temp (>150 degrees)."
Everyone above seems to be speaking of a thermostat for the cooling system. My coolant temp has always been right around 200 which is just fine, so I don't see the need for an upgraded radiator or to change the thermostat. However, I would be interested in an "inline" thermostat as referenced, to ensure the oil warms up quickly. After all, there has to be a reason why BMW has put such a restrictive device in the filter housing. Can anyone shed light on the "inline thermostat"?

Hotter climates can probably run the device without the thermostat, but in lower temp places I think this could be a disservice. Going to do some research on the inline oil thermostat and decide what to do from there. With Harrop stage II 85F outside and on the freeway at 85mph, AC on, my temps were about 225 yesterday. Definitely want to chop 20 degrees out if possible. I'm happy w/ my coolant temp, fine with it at 200, although going with a different (cooler) engine thermostat will likely lower oil temps slightly as well. 160 is definitely a bit under what I would be ok with on the coolant side. 180 would be my absolute minimum there.

No question about the benefits in hotter temps, but it's all about finding a balance that fits the use of the car. Thanks!

Ha, this is an awesome and timely-for-me thread - was just driving the M3 to work today for first time in a long time and thought "I wonder if the S65 has an aftermarket oil diverter valve like the one I bought for the N63 that would allow the oil to always flow to the cooler".

But the oil T-Stat is now a diverter. Now it is time to test to see if my oil temps stay more reasonable. Will confirm once I go for a good rip. Grr, still mad at that damn ACC bracket. Stupid place for dowels... And this was my unicorn:
