Engine coolant level low

i searched and looked at some topics, most people said to go to the dealer to get it put in because they have a premix? anyways does anyone know if i can do it without going to the dealer? like add it in my self, and does anyone know which type of antifreeze to get?

one more question, i reset my services lights myself, but if i go to the dealer, would they care if they found out/i told them? would it void my warranty? i wanted to get my x5 checked out by them for any problems before my warranty runs out in a couple of months.

You can buy BMW OEM coolant by the gallon from online suppliers like http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/ the service lights, and or doing your own oil or coolant changes should not void your warranty. Try to specifically direct the dealer to check known the weak area's of your X5, like water pump, high pressure power steering hose, suspension bushings, CV boots, etc. for the last warranty inspection. Good luck
