Blue Antifreeze
Good evening,
I recently ordered a gallon of MB antifreeze, which arrived today, in blue.
In the past, the antifreeze I've ordered has been a pale orange/yellow, so did I get the wrong stuff, or did the formula change?
The part # is BQ 1 03 0004
Thanks in advance for any advice!

It's compatible, but blue is the older stock as far as I know. The new coolant is yellow. You can go to O'reillys and get Zerex G-05 coolant and it will work, it's also yellow.
