I never knew antifreeze was such a mine field.
Comma do 2 similar priced products, both red, both concentrate, both longlife.
One is traditional, one is organic.

Anyone know owt about this stuff? What do PAS put in?

Idont think it makes much difference tbh.

I just use the ready mixed 'red stuff.. From eur'o carparts or cp4L.

I only know not to mix different types together.

I think I'd give Opie Oils a try and see what they recommend via their website or message them through here (member: Oilman).

Never look at the colour, it's only there to misguide you.

(Almost) all coolants are glycol-based, but they use different technologies to prevent corrosion and sedimentation. OAT is for Peugeot. Others may use hybrid-OAT and silicate/phosphate-based. These other types are not to be used in our cars. Mixing of coolants based on different additive technology may cause sludge and gelification from reactions between the different additives.

Official coolant from Peugeot is Glysantin G33. It is a glycol-based coolant which uses OAT. Replacement coolant must also be OAT. If G33 is not available Glysantin also makes G30, which is another OAT-type coolant, which it is possible to mix with G33. The long-life protection against corrosion and sedimentation is only assured if you have flushed the cooling system so that it does not mix with the previous coolant.

Why is life so complicated.
Doesn't sound like a 'one size fits all' approach is best policy then.
My fault for having Pug, Ford & VW at home!

Cheers guys
