Coolant

[majestikmoose]

Hi guys,

I am going to change my radiator due to catastrophoc failure, just a quick question. How much coolant will I need to refill the whole system and any ideas of the best stuff to use. I've heard it mentioned that Renault Glaceol Type D Coolant is the one to use or is normal antifreeze/water mix ok.

Thanks

Think you'll need about 6 litres? can't remember to be honest :oops:

I believe its 7 litres? I might be wrong too, lol.

[majestikmoose]

yeah 7 litres agrees with what my mechanic friend has said. Any preferences on which coolant to use?

Type D is good, but most generic stuff is fine assuming you mix it properly with water if not already mised. Eskimo stuff from GSF is cheap and we get a 10% club discount.

I believe aslony as its Glycol based, and NOT Methanol you are fine.

Might be chatting shit though.
