Hello all, I'm taking the ML to France in August and I'll be doing about 2k miles in a week. Thus far in ownership (in c. 3k miles) no oil, coolant, electricity or air has leaked (and no gearbox oil since a new sump fitted either!) However, I'm being super prepared and will be taking a selection of tools, oil, tyre sealant (even though it has a space saver), jumper cables, tyre inflator, windscreen washer fluid and the mandatory euro travel kit etc on the basis that if I have them (plus the European breakdown cover) I'll not need them. I was going to add some Comma G48 Antifreeze (XSG48M5L) which according to the car reg is right for the car and I know it to be blue, however the car has coolant in it which is orange. Does anyone know whether this is right for a 2008 car with an OM642 engine or has it been replaced at some stage in its life?
