Just after a bit of advice and owners experience on anti freeze, will soon be doing a coolant change on my 2010 3.6 TDV8 and was going to go for OAT concentrate from a well know motoring shop. Its got the pink stuff in already so guessing its OAT in there currently, was going to drain and flush and then add OAT 50/50 mix.

Don't flush or mix with tap water - especially if 'hard' water, coolant systems should be flushed either with pre-mixed coolant or de-ionised water, dilution should also be with de-ionised water.

Agreed, always use de ionised water. Easily available in 20L containers. |
