PS, I added a pint to the OEM stuff already in the radiator .... 5000 mi. later it's working fine, so it is compatible .... good luck .... Mike :thumbup:
I use Peak Global 50/50 Lifetime in everything.
T.P.
I use Prestone’s all makes all models 50/50 premix. It’s compatible with everything. As per BajaRon, as long as it says it’s safe for aluminum engines, you’ll be fine.
:lecturef_smilie::lecturef_smilie: what ever brand just use same color. Flush/rinse & new every 2yr
Just be aware that now-a-days color can be irrelevant. Anti-freeze comes in a whole variety of colors, red, blue, orange, green, yellow, etc. You have to know whether it's a HOAT type coolant or not. Topping off with a universal application type coolant works just fine.
Some info on the aforementioned HOAT coolant.
