Low Coolant Warning
Any specific "MB required" coolant for a '96 E320 or is green Prestone acceptable? Is a period flush recommended; is yes how often? Thanks.

No, green prestone is not acceptable.

Use coolant from dealer or G0-5

Got a gallon of Zerex G-05 at Pep Boys for $11.99. Should be all set. Thanks for the info!
