Product Description

The CSF DCT Transmission Cooler is a high-performance cooling upgrade for the BMW F87 M2 Competition, F80 M3, F82 M4 and F83 M4, designed to help maintain stable transmission temperatures during demanding road, track and high-performance driving.

Engineered specifically for the BMW S55 engine platform, this upgraded DCT cooler provides approximately 30% greater cooling efficiency than the OEM cooler, helping protect the transmission from overheating under sustained load.

Using CSF’s AC Condenser Technology, the cooler features a 1-row super-high-pressure 26mm multi-channel microtube with a dual-pass core design and 10 cooling tubes, outperforming the factory single-pass 6-tube design.

Designed as a true drop-in fit, the CSF DCT Cooler requires no modifications and accepts OEM oil-line connections, mounting brackets and shroud / ducting for straightforward installation.
