I’m running 110k miles in my M40 X3. There was a coolant issue but other than that it’s been an excellent engine.
Not that low because I topped it off before it got to that point but yeah it’s normal for our cars. It should only be the initial settling though, top it off engine cold with vw g12 evo 50/50 or distilled water and keep an eye on it. It shouldn’t drop any more once topped off for a while anyway.
MANNOL Antifreeze AF12+ rózsaszín OAT típusú legolcsóbb, ami jó bele hidegen mindkét részen fel kell tölteni
The previous coolant was Liqui Moly (green), and I topped it up with Febi Bilstein (blue). Even though the colours are different, both were confirmed to be compatible with my vehicle.
As you can see, straight from the jug, the Mazda coolant is resisting both corrosion and freezing better than the Motomaster.
I used AISIN 20% PRE-MIXED COOLANT ON MY AIO WITHOUT DILUTING, do i need to replace and dilute it? by surprise, it has 32°c idle temp and never 69°c max temp on cinebench on milticore test. and on triple AAA games, my i5 11400, never exceeded 55°c.
I only use honda coolant. My 2003 crv has almost 300k on the original water pump.
I used to swear by Honda’s antifreeze but now I get the Aisin brand. It’s half the price and is specifically for Hondas and Acura’s.
Most likely answer is he used one similar to PRESTONE which they do have one thats for all makes and models, it is a universal coolant including European models.
330i, coolant repairs.
