11522249216 Viscous Fan Clutch Assembly for BMW
This product page describes a thermal viscous fan clutch associated with 11522249216 and BMW. Yongshang Auto SKU BM01012-010 supports clear order and warehouse identification.
Inside the clutch, calibrated fluid shear links the input hub to the fan mounting section. The thermal control reacts to hot air leaving the radiator so fan assistance increases during demanding conditions.

Temperature-Responsive Fan Engagement
By varying the amount of torque delivered to the fan, the viscous coupling supports stable coolant temperature during idling, towing, climbing and hot-weather operation.
Inspect for cracked blades, loose fasteners, shaft play and contact marks before replacing the hub. A damaged fan can overload a new clutch and create a safety risk.
Buyer Matching Guide
A reliable BMW match requires agreement in OE number 11522249216, mounting method, hub offset, fan pattern and available clearance inside the shroud.
- Confirm the OE number and usable cross-references.
- Match vehicle model, engine, chassis and production period.
- Check drive-side thread or flange and rotation direction.
- Measure hub height, pilot diameter and fan bolt circle.
- Verify blade alignment and clearance inside the shroud.
Installation and Cooling-System Checks
Installation should be completed by a qualified technician. Follow the specified thread direction and torque procedure, inspect the fan and water-pump bearing, replace damaged hardware, and confirm that the blade rotates freely without contacting the radiator or shroud. Test the vehicle under the appropriate warm operating conditions after assembly.
Packing and QC Notes
The agreed QC scope can include dimensional sampling, visible leakage inspection, rotation feel, item-code labels and shipment photographs.
Ordering Specification Notes
To reduce selection risk, treat 11522249216 and BM01012-010 as the start of the BMW specification. Add thread or flange details, pilot diameter, bolt pattern, hub offset and shroud clearance. The resulting checklist supports quotation, approval, receiving and installation review.
Wholesale and Procurement Information
Send OE 11522249216, item BM01012-010, target market and annual demand for evaluation. Original-unit photos improve review when application data is incomplete.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does 11522249216 respond to temperature?
The thermal mechanism changes viscous coupling behavior as hot radiator-exit air reaches the clutch, increasing fan drive when required.
What if the new hub sits closer to the radiator?
Stop and recheck the application. Incorrect offset can reduce clearance and risk contact with the radiator or shroud.
Should rotation direction be verified?
Yes. Fan design and clutch operation must suit the intended rotation and mounting arrangement.
What QC can be requested for BM01012-010?
Visible-condition checks, dimensional sampling, product photographs, labels and carton review can be discussed.
What affects production lead time?
Quantity, stock, manufacturing schedule, inspection scope and packaging requirements all influence the confirmed plan.
