E39 2.5 coolant

[M5-911]

Hi all,

Just wondering what coolant should I use for my E39? I am not using the car very much and it stand still for long periods of time (not sure what was use the last time I left it at the garage). Any recommendations? Hope that this isn't as bad as "what type of oil should I use" thread!?

Cheers

Something that's made to the BMW G48 formulation.

Comma G48 with deionised water; or ready mixed

Both on Amazon:

Concentrate: https://www.amazon.co.uk/XSG5L-Xstream-Antifreeze-...

Ready mixed: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Comma-XSG48M5L-Xstream-An...

Deionised water: https://www.amazon.co.uk/CarPlan-ionised-Water-Bat...

You'll need c10l all in for a full flush and refil (so 5l concentrate, 5l deionised water if you do it that way)
