Viscosity grades
Viscosity is a measure of an oil's flow rating and

the climatic conditions in the region in which
you normally drive your BMW.
If the coolant is low, slowly add coolant up to
the specified level; do not overfill.

Approved oils belong to the SAE grades
5W-40 and 5W-30.<
Have the reason for the coolant loss elimi-
nated as soon as possible.
These oils can be used for driving at all outside
temperatures.
Coolant
Do not add coolant to the cooling system
when the engine is hot. Escaping coolant
can cause burns.<
Coolant is comprised of water and coolant addi-
tive. Not all commercially available additives are
