The dealer changed my thermostat under warranty. Does this mean they also changed the coolant?
Thanks

probably not. you can change the thermostat on most bmw's without losing hardly any coolant.

That is what I suspect.
Time for a coolant change by myself.

If it was changed by the dealer, I think you would see the part number on the invoice.
