Coolant type

[remus]

I don't change my antifreeeze until I know it won't work like it should. I use an antifreeze tester to check it 2-3 times a year. they cost about $4 on amazon or the same a walmart

Does your antifreeze tester check the ph??? That is just as important as the freeze/boiling points of any coolant especially in the all aluminum environment...

Definitely need to carefully check the 'PH VALUE' of your Spyder Coolant once a year. .....:thumbup:

Oh no :gaah:

Was looking to flush mine and it’s been 9 years. :yikes:

Can’t seem to find the capacity on a STS though.

I thought I read that you can use Dex-cool in the newer bikes. If anyone knows for sure, let us know. Thanx!!

Yep, I researched that ...... it appears to be what BRP sells ( for 3x's the price :roflblack: ) .... " Dex-Cool " is a Brand name, but is sold by under different Name-Brand sellers of anti-freeze / coolants. ..... back in the early summer I had an over-heating issue with my 2014 RT .... I finally just Added Dex Cool until it over-flowed ... the Spyder removed the excess without any issues .......:thumbup: Mike :thumbup:
