General information
Coolant consists of water and coolant addi-
tive.
Not all commercially available additives are
suitable for the vehicle. The vehicle manu-
facturer recommends using coolant with the
BMW LC-18 specification. Do not mix addi-
tives of different colors. Observe the water -
additive mixture ratio of 50:50. Information
about suitable additives is available from a
dealer’s service center or another qualified
service center or repair shop.

With the engine hot and the cooling sys-
tem open, coolant can escape and lead to

Warning
Additives are harmful and incorrect addi-
tives can damage the engine. There is a
risk of injury and risk of damage to prop-
erty. Do not allow additives to come into

ing. Use suitable additives only.
