BMW coolant

[Drooby]

anyone know where (other than the dealer) can you get approved coolant for an M50? Are there any other brands that would work as good as the OEM coolants that you can find locally?

This has been extensively discussed... please search the forum on this topic.

BMA has the coolant for fairly cheap, as does Circle BMW and probably Nick Alexander BMW. It's a bit more expensive than the cheaper stuff, but folks swear at/by it.

Drain your entire system and run Mercedes coolant. Half the price than at the Bimmer stealer.
