The Four Seasons 76281 radiator fan for the 2008-2013 BMW 128i 3.0L and other vehicles is an electric motor assembly with its fan and shroud that moves air through the radiator when road airflow alone cannot cool the engine.

  • Four Seasons cooling fans are engineered and tested for years of trouble-free operation, backed by over 50 years of mobile A/C experience.
  • Meets or exceeds O.E. design and performance.
  • Made in ISO certified facilities.
  • Motor RPM is equivalent to or higher than the OEM motor.

A temperature gauge that rises at idle or in slow traffic, or A/C that blows warmer while the car sits still, can mean the radiator fan has quit. Find out why before you replace it: with the engine off and cool, check the coolant level and make sure the fan connector is fully seated and its wiring is not melted or broken. A blown fuse or a faulty coolant temperature sensor can also keep the fan from running, and a shop can test those.

The 2008-2013 BMW 128i 3.0L, 2007-2013 BMW 328i 3.0L and 2009-2013 BMW 328i xDrive 3.0L take one radiator fan each, and this one is a direct fit for several other BMW models as well.
