What difference does it make if I have the wrong color antifreeze in this car? The mechanic said it’s good til -32, but the wrong color.
ALSO: Will 200 hp V6 pull 2100 lbs boat. (It’s says 3500 lbs), but feels a little weird pulling it. maybe I’m just not used to it yet
Thank you
Wrong Color Anti-Freeze
As it turns out your vehicle requires DEX-COOL anti-freeze/coolant. DEX-COOL is typically orange in color and should not be mixed with Green anti-freeze. Using the wrong anti-freeze will result in internal cooling system gasket failure. Back in December of 2007 GM lost a DEX-COOL class action lawsuit.
From the Manual:
As for the pulling a boat question, refer to the car owners manual for towing capabilities.
I guess I will get anti-freeze flushed & replaced with Dex-Cool Mixture.
Do u suggest getting it flushed professionally?
If you do not know how or do not have the tools to do it yourself, a professional would be a good choice.
