Doh !!! added water to coolant need advise.
Just screwed up . Doh. I had a low coolant message on my display (x5 2001)
There was a small amount visible in the reservoir. I thought I could just add water . Which I did. Should have read up first .
Now I read it should be distilled water and coolant mixture.

Will I be ok to drive 200 miles (Saturday) and then bleed the system and re-add the proper coolant mixture.
Thanks.

P.P.S is it easy to bleed .
