If I catch it again in a few years I'll buy the BMW kind.

I'm scared to mix any antifreeze, but it's not a problem with oils.

The good stuff in Mazda and Ford line is FL-22 long lasting up to 10 years, but BMW always uses double talk to not tell us the specs that compare to other stuff.

Anyone know of type same specs that's not BMW?
Your measurements seem to line up perfectly with how much I had to add to mine. I have never added any before, but this week I had to add 1 quart. My 28i X1 is exactly 3 years old.
