2004 Xsara II 2.0hdi antifreeze questions

[Roen]

Problem solving progressing thanks to this forum, but realised I need to add Antifreeze to my list of stuff to get the car back on the road
I need to drain and refill the coolant, but can't find out how much I need to buy!
Also I am guessing that I need one that is good for Citroen Xsaras - maybe?
I am getting someone to pick this up for me as not very mobile just now

It'll be about 8-9 litres total, so get 5 litres, bung about 3 litres of AF in, add 3 litres of water and see where you up to - probably need to add about another litre of each. Use the longlife OAT stuff.

It's really great to have such knowledgeable people on here who are happy to share that with us
Thank you RIchard

what colour was/is the old antifreeze that is coming out,

if its blue or green you can put blue or green back in, if its red, orange or i believe yellow, only use to OAT type
