Propylene glycol is nice, but Ethelyn glycol stinks. Also, a little concerned right now...

yes sir. Its all basic mechanical, not a complicated vehicle at all (pre Vanos). I recommend an AFE intake and the beefier front control arms and bushings from Bavauto, they make a world of difference. Keep an eye for the oil filter housing, spring seats, and rear shock towers. Also suggest replacing the front idler pulley and tensioner pulley. They are cheap and easy to replace and help not cause a common and easily avoidable break down. Keep those rear bulb sockets fresh, and many other bits here and there. They have tank status, keep her happy dude.
