Coolant type

N55shack · 01-30-2019, 03:49 PM

Hello everyone, I have a 2011 535i n55 that is currently leaking coolant. I had no choice but to put green coolant in it. I work at firestone and we have brown coolant, would I be able to keep topping it off with the brown coolant or what do I need to do? Need to know before I leave work today as my coolant is low again. Any and all information would be greatly appreciated!

You should only run BMW blue coolant. A gallon at dealer is only $20 and need to be diluted 1:1 with distilled water. Replace the non-BMW coolant asap
