<misc>coolant in BMW Engines

[r browne <r_browne@xxxxxxxxx>]

Regarding Antifreeze in BMW's, it was written:

Consider the new orange long life anti-freeze.  Many use itbecause if
you
have a slight coolant leak which you can not find, the leakwill show a
dry
orange hue on the hose or connection.  The green will notshow.

======================

I'm not one to spread baseless urban legend, but I *thought*, that I
recently read somewhere, that these new long-life orange type coolants
may not be the best thing for all cooling systems.  Am I way off base
here?  If so, apologies.
