I just bought some Blue Coolant for my BMW. The manual says to only use the
proper coolant yada yada yada because of the aluminum heads. The message
boards cite potential headgasket failures if the incorrect coolant is used
(interesting). Anyway, the coolant looks the same as the VW stuff, comes
from Germany, and the bottle even looks the same except for the BMW sticker
on the side. My guess is that it is from the same supplier. If anyone is in
a pinch and needs the blue I think it's safe to assume the BMW stuff is a
direct replacement. By the way I got mine from EAP4PARTS.com for $13/bottle.
