Coolant change for 2012 BMW 528i Xdrive

HI,

I am trying to drain and fill coolant for 2012 BMW 528i Xdrive, my car has 60k miles, the coolant is never been replace. I am thinking drain and fill the coolant, wonder what is BMW part # for coolant? how many bottle do I need? assume one bottle in GA. Wonder any instruction for my model of car or close to it? I did see few older model of instruction.

Also question about breeding, I saw few instructions are talking about use battery charge, I just wonder why BMW has do use battery charge and some other car doesn't need do that?

Thanks for advice

Frank

Thanks so much to reply me with this instruction, with 2012 BMW 528i Xdrive, according the instruction, you have to loose the pvc pipe:

Unlock and pull off coolant hose (1) at radiator and coolant thermostat.

Drain, catch and dispose of coolant.

wonder anyone did it? is messy? guess I have to go home to find the right coolant hose.

Thanks

Frank
