I keep this in the trunk of my mk7. Haven’t had to use it, but I feel comfortable using it in emergencies
Valvoline HT-12, because I can't find genuine BMW coolant in my country.
Now running a Valvoline 50/50 mix with no issues
Valvolines is cross compatable
tema marcas yo usaria valvoline
i have a 21 jetta, been using the valvoline one, no issues
I use Valvoline Zerex Asian Blue in mine. Good stuff, and compatible with OEM Mitsubishi coolant, for like half the price.
My last vehicle was an RX350 which I had for 14 years with 115,000 miles before trading it in and had zero leaks. I flushed/replaced the coolant at 100,000.
Proton original radiator is of very poor quality. Rust prone. Change it as soon and use premixed Toyota Coolant bought from Toyota Service Center to avoid fakes. Toyota SLLC and an aftermarket radiator will last the remaining lifetime of your Saga.
Mods: None, staying showroom stock. TCL Buyers Guide Negatives / future ownership issues: A) Valley Plate coolant leak: Look for pink crystals (dried coolant) underside of engine near where transmission meets up w engine. Also check upper radiator hose where it connects to radiator. Workaround: 50k/5 year coolant maintenance.
