1700005 Draining and adding coolant (N63): Notes

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 15 other vehicles, including the 2015 BMW Alpina B7L, 2015 BMW Alpina B7, 2014 BMW Alpina B7L, 2014 BMW Alpina B7, and 2013 BMW Alpina. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: Risk of scalding!
The repair work on the cooling system should only be carried out on an engine that has cooled down!
IMPORTANT: Lifetime coolant filling: 
Never reuse used coolant!
When replacing and removing components which rely on the corrosion protection effect of the coolant, it is essential to change the coolant. The cooling system must therefore be drained and refilled.
In the case of other removal work involving the draining of part quantities of coolant, replace these quantities which have been drained with new coolant.

Installation note: 

Use only recommended coolant and observe mixture ratio. See COOLING SYSTEM - OPERATING FLUIDS .
