I'm keeping it in mind when my new M550i arrives in late July.

Before I placed the order I sat for an hour with the service advisor at my local dealer (I've been bringing them my cars since 2005 or so when I moved into the area.)

The short version - I asked him to tell me all the things that he's being seeing go wrong with the G30 since they rolled it out. The item he brought up was the coolant issue. He did not describe any major leaks, but did say in the M550 they had several customers come in to have it topped off (which they did at no charge). He was also adamant that you only use their coolant, nothing else.

I also hit him up for the expected costs for maintenance items I would need to cover beyond the MX plan's expiration, etc., but that's for another thread/post.

In any event, seeing this thread on the forums brought the issue back to mine so I thought I'd post the bulletin.
