Hi Guys,

Just looking to buy antifreeze for top ups extra.
Looking in the workshop manual, it states "Havoline XLC" a searching I found that "Prestone Dex Cool Extended Life" is a direct replacement. see below.
I found this in Toolstation, what do you think? Or other than my main dealer who is hard to get too for me, any other suggestions? The colour appears to look oragnge in colour.

Hi ya,

Wasnt sure if it's the same stuff as mine seems to be an orange / red colour.

Yes i did read somewhere its the red and not the blue you must use

Yes.

So that coolant will be ok for top up, the euro car parts one?

Yes. Red Euro parts one.

If the postage is no more for 2
I would buy 2

Hi all,

Just looking to piggy back off this topic - I need to top up my coolant and the manual says Castrol SF. The cap on the reservoir says use green not red but the plastic looks red stained (no fluid visible).

I've read the 2 can't mix so should I go red (Triple QX Red) or use factory recommended?

Thanks!
