coolant brand/type recommendation

[KSINGH]

got an oil and water leak somewhere so i need to have it up on a lift soon.

the coolant is quite low so I wanna top up before taking the car in.

should i buy from BMW or get something at midas or the likes?

Coolant is one of the few things I only buy OEM. BMW's is reasonably priced.

Get the BMW coolant.

I only use BMW coolant because I know its good and wont corrode the water ways... I have also used LM before but went back to BMW because I know It works well

Well since its just a top up fill anything. Once you sort that leak out flush the system and use BMW
