I was watching wheeler dealers and Ed China replaced coolant with a non water based version that never boils, anyone know of that type of product?

Yes, I've got it in mine. It seems to make the car run hotter though, the oil gets to 100-110 degrees pretty quickly and wont come down from there. I don't remember it running that hot before, it takes an age for the Megane to get to those temps. It's as if the chemical blend absorbs well, but doesn't dispense of the heat in the radiator quite as efficiently as water/coolant mix?

Having said that, between 100-110 is fine....it just gets there fast, good for the life of the engine.

So would you recommend replacing water based coolant with this one?
