G-48 & G-05 are interchangeable. G-05 is supposed to be the famed "M-B" yellow Coolant.
In 2002 (and later), the FACTORY FILL was DEX-Cool. If the car has DEX-Cool, and has NEVER had anything else, top up with DEX-Cool. Otherwise, no need to waste your money on DEX-Cool. And there should be no need to change it.
DEX-Cool only gives the cooling system "extended life" if nothing but DEX-Cool has ever been in the system (besides water...). So, if your 2002 or later has to get blue or yellow stuff to get you somewhere, that's OK, you just have to change coolant at normal intervals from then on.
