While many vehicles are not too picky about the type of coolant You use, the 2012 Mercedes-Benz C250 recommends a specific OEM formulation that meets standard 325.3. However, there are a number of third party manufacturers who produce antifreeze that meets the same standards; You'll certainly want to make sure Your coolant does, or else You run the risk of damaging Your engine. Though OEM is recommended, You can get away with something like Castrol Radicool SF, which also meets the same standard. Mobil Antireeze Advanced is another popular product that will work just fine in Your C250, as is Ravenol OTC. For a complete listing of compatible coolants, You can see the aggregated list found at https://bevo.Mercedes-Benz.com/bevolisten/325.3_en.html .
