is this coolant already pre/mixed? do i need to add any water?

This is straight, undiluted coolant. You will need to add water, preferably deionized.

This coolant comes as a pure glycol concentrate. I add 50% distilled water to mine, ending up with two gallons.

It is NOT premixed. You will need to add the same volume of distiller water.

It is NOT premixed. You need to buy some distilled water. I read of a couple mix ratios on this but the consensus was 50/50. I mixed up a quart to top mine off. My mechanic does not stock it, and many auto stores did not. Mechanic said just bring in my jug when it's time to flush. I have no idea if my gallon concentrate is enough for that or not. We'll see when the time comes.

The coolant is not pre-mixed, you will need to add distilled water at about 1:1 ratio.

Good morning! You will indeed need to add water. Volkswagen recommends a 50/50 split. I hope that helps! Thanks for your question!!

It doesn't come pre-mixed, so you'll need to mix it with water. It's useful to have another container that you can mix with. Just make sure they can hold the same amount of volume, otherwise you'll need a good way to measure the mix. Typically I keep an old used coolant jug (rinsed of course) from the generic brands for this purpose. Like many others have said, 50/50 is best recommended.

Add water. Instructions read a minimum 50/50 mix and maximum 70/30 coolant to water mix.

yes you do have an aluminum radiator in that car. drain all coolant from vehicle. fill with water add a quarter cup of radiator cleaner. and run for 15 to 20 minutes. drain and repeat if necessary. flush radiator with water. and refill with 50:50 mixture of antifreeze

There is Too much danger (I learned the hard and expensive way) mixing coolant in these vehicles; so no I would not recommend mixing in the this G12 with the blue. Flush and Fill with Product Identified in the owners manual

You should mix the full strength coolant with distilled water (50% water volume with 50% coolant volume).

Did some searches for you using the search term "Mini Cooper coolant" and this is the indicated coolant type.... if you are down a bit in the overflow and don't live in a freezing climate, a little distilled water to top off the tank is not an issue.

I generally just mix it with purified water. You could mix it with skim milk if you wanted to as well.

It's always better when you start off with fresh coolant .The directions say that it works better with less than 50% antifreeze .If you coolant in your system is fresh now you may add it to your radiator right away .Just make sure that the system is cool before you remove the radiator cap for safety , {don't want to get burned} .Good luck .

Use the red coolant 00272-1LLAC-01 and add distilled water or flush and replace with Zerex Asian (already pre-mixed).

Wont hurt anything I was driving for a year with it leaking water into the oil seems the oil is so hot it steams the water out of the oil. I wouldnt go out of my way to put extra coolant in the oil and why dont you drain the coolant first. Its at the top of the engine prb drained down lower. I saw no coolant in mine and like you say change the oil. I just traded my 2001 Impala 118K mi for a 2013 Altima I am tired of fixing stuff. Everything was about to go in that car. Tranny was next.

If you need more coolant you can just buy distilled water fairly cheaply. It comes with a good amount of hose And you should be able to make it reach all your other water blocks.

i always drain radiator before i put a new additive in, and start with all new coolant and additive.

Just add it in powder form and it'll mix with the liquid in there already or mix it with water first and then dump it in!

Refill a 50/50 mixture of Toyota Long Life engine coolant and distilled water. It might be a good idea to investigate for leaks and/or find out why fluid was low. Could be dripping from radiator or hose or internal leak- head gasket. Losing coolant can be big problems later on. My advice is don't ignore it.

Yes, do not mix with any other coolant and do not add water. Change interval from factory is 11 years. Just top off when needed.

No, it doesn't go bad. It's mostly silver, which isn't perishable. However it is possible that after a number of years the components within separate from each other and aren't mixed properly anymore. You might be able to shake it to remix the components or they could mix back together when you squeeze it out of the tube. However this is just conjecture on my part, I don't know if the ingredients separate over time or not. I'd go ahead and use it anyways. If your PC overheats, it's easy enough to just clean it off and apply new coolant.
