Which Coolant
With spring coming up I'm going to need to change all my fluids and just do some general preventive maintance and I just want to make sure I'm using the correct type of coolant.
|
50/50 premix from prestone i think would be your best choice IMO
|
50/50 of the ORANGE GM approved dexcool
you can even buy the stuff pre mixed for like 8 bucks a bottle... Cant go wrong! |
I herd there was a class action lawsuit with that dexcool stuff...?
I know it used to eat gaskets on the grand ams |
well its what his car comes with... you can add green, and make brown mud LOL
I didnt hear about that though... intresting. |
a gooey brown at that man...
|
I heard about that too Tony which is why I was asking if there was something better out now.
|
Gm is still using Dex Cool and I cant find the article...
Ill get if i can later from my gfs bro.. |
the lawsuit has been thrownout from my understanding since everyone involved was not following directions. If you change you must flush teh system very well, I just use the all color and call it good (a GM service manager recomended it to me)
|
Yea i say dex cool thats definatly the way to go just dont mix it with the green stuff, i think prestone came out with a 50/50 that you can mix with anything it says it on the bottle that you can. the coolant is yellow in the bottle. But i never tryed it.

the advance auto brand is an all color. I never buy pre mixed i hate throwing money away on someone elses water

Same thing goes on at Oreillys. Everyone wants the stuff premixed I'm lucky my car uses the cheap green stuff. :D I have been considering just running stright water and just add 2 bottles of purple ice to the water.
