Need to just top up slightly on both, looked in Owners Handbooks and other than go 50/50 on AF, nothing unless I managed to miss it.

On AF, I have Halfords Anti Freeze "Ethylene Glycol Formulation", says complies to BS 6580 and "suitable for all types of engines" OK to use?

What type & viscosity etc of oil should I use?

Thanks.

0W 30 FULLY SYNTHETIC is recommended - just dont buy it from BMW!!!

I used Mobil 1 0W - 40 as it was a good price in Costcos and has been fine

With regard to the AF - a universal should do - I used it with no probs
