c5 antifreeze

Post by 411514 »

Just wanted to check that the antifreeze i have ordered is suitable for the the 2.0 hdi,
currently it appears to have the original colourless citroen antifreeze in it, i will be draining and flushing this,
do i have to stick to the citroen colourless stuff, if so does anyone know the part number of this, or am i fine to fill with this

It is never simple :roll:

Take a look Here for a start.

I have Citroens 'Antigel' in mine - due for a change, will bung the same stuff in as I have it in stock.

It's green, so conforms to the last option by the looks of things.

I did find an article from a SAAB garage about using Mercedes antifreeze but can't find it now.

I intend to replace mine with Bluecol Red over the weekend, which will hopefully be compatible. I'll flush the old stuff out well, though.
