Coolant for 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Coupe (C207)

[ColonelDuck]

Hello, I was hoping that someone on here might be kind enough to help me

I have a 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Coupe (C207) with a E 220 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY engine.

I need to replace the engine coolant; I’ve had a display message ‘Top up coolant See Owner’s Manual’. The advice in the manual directs me to a website, which is no longer active. It also refers me to “310.1 General information and specification on coolants”, which is a technical document on the formulaic composition of coolant.

Please can anyone tell me which engine coolant I need to buy and ideally where I can buy it from?

Thank you!

I'd be surprised if it's the one above as usually MBs use G48 but yours is a late model so possible I guess.
The owners manual should give a spec for it (325.0 for example) so using the link above will then tell you what to get.

Works with all oils and fluids MB use.

When you buy be sure it's the same colour as is in.

but you can't just rely on colour

Sure, but that results in a drain down, flush, flush, and replacement.

In truth if the OP just used water, de ionised if being fussy, it would be ok. Especially in the UK.

Distilled not deionised.
Deionised is corrosive to some metals.

That would be my suggestion too .... plain old 'corporation pop'

Just don't be tempted to use mineral water (there's a clue in the name!)
