Coolant / Antifreeze ? Help Please UK/Europe

Tayzer · 05-01-2021, 01:04 PM

Hey, So first off, super sorry as i'm sure this has been asked before and it's a stupid rookie question I did a forum search and couldn't find anything.

I need to top up/change my coolant/antifreeze but I cannot for the life of me find out what to use. I've asked garages, car specialists shops and everyone says check the manual but it says to use 999MP-L25500P only. Now I cannot find anyone with stock and not sure of what else if anything I can use. I'll find loads of years old threads from various places and they all say a multitude of different things. Literally people saying I use red, I use green, I use blue, I use silicone free, I use silicone 50/50 and i'm just worried

UK / European Car - 60 Plate (2011) - Any help would be appreciated. Please feel free to call me an idiot too but only if you can help

Any BLUE formula for Asian vehicles will be fine. Engine coolants are all color-coded now to ensure compatibility with various manufacturer requirements.

Here is what Prestone offers:

It may help to eschew this site's search "feature", go to any of the web search engines, and add "site:the370z.com" to your search string. Eg, "coolant site:the370z.com". This limits the search to the specified web site.

I'm blue if I were green, I would die. If I were green I would die.
