Red face MB world noobie here.....

just wanted to say hello. Also...our ML coolant fluid light is on...obviously needs coolant. My question is...is it the coolant (i believe it is orange?) the same as Audi G2 coolant? Just wanted to make sure...didn't want to mix it if it was different...thanks!

You can pick up coolant at NAPA...Zerex G05 coolant, same stuff they sell at the dealers, just different bottling. This is what is recommended for MB.

Audi uses the G12 coolant.

coolant light

yes the tank is low on coolant because you definatly have a leak. most ml's lower coolant hose does leak and now were starting to find the upper hose leaking also.might want to look into getting new hoses and clamps.
