2.0 Coolant Additives
No aftermarket coolant additives, including but not limited to those which provide additional corrosion inhibition or seal off minor leaks are approved by BMW.
Use of non-approved coolant additives may cause reduced heat transfer from the cylinder head to the coolant and the formation of hot spots. This can cause the burning through of cylinder head gaskets and/or cracking of the cylinder head.
BMW NA cannot accept the liability for the resulting effects and consequential damage caused by the use of coolant additives.
