Ok just spoke to an BMW independent shop (dealer service desk is like no one there the day after thanksgiving) supposedly 2019/2020 vehicle are all getting the new green coolant and it's not advised to mix... and no one sell that new part yet, so guess have to take to someone to drain first...
I'm still confused on this green vs blue coolant? I spoke to a couple of different dealers and they say the coolant is blue... I purchased a bottle of BMW coolant and it's clearly blue but unless all of a sudden I'm color blind the coolant appears green in my 2019 540. My SA told me it may appear green in the reservoir but it's really blue coolant which sounds ridiculous to me. As a result, I only added distilled water to be safe until I can bring it in for service in a few weeks. Any thoughts on this? Thanks!
Whatever is in 2019 is definitely green, dealer told me ok to mix...
