Hi, Can anyone please help me in telling me what kind of coolant i am suposed to use? I want to do a radiator flush as there is only water in the radiator system at the moment and would like to put coolant in.. I have heard BMW's need a very particular kind of coolant? any advise greatly appreciated thanks! Vehicle itself is: Make: BMW Model: 318iS Generation: E36 Year: 1996

Thank you both for your welcome responses, im very much enjoying the exceptional handling of the bema all ready! and the rather nice weight distribution just wonderful!

Just purchased my first ever European car on Friday. I only piad $800 for it the oil is lovely and clean and so is the engine.. (from what i can see looking down the oil cap) the interior is a bit rough and appears to have been poorly re assembled at some point in its life. Its only been 2 days with my new BMW and i am really enjoying the handling, and the cool little differences BMW have in the design of their cars that sets them apart from the rest. It a 1996 E36 318iS (see pic) Thanks for taking time to read this and i look forwards to getting to know users. Thanks
