That sucks. I hope your engine is OK. I only used maybe half a gallon (tops) of 50/50 mix (I still have half of the BMW bottle of concentrate).
I did not take it for a vacuum flush and I've had zero problems after the repair. Engine oil temps are back to their normal ranges.
I may have to vacuum flush the cooling system anyway since I plan on replacing the oil filter housing and upper radiator hose fitting BEFORE they fail.
