You know, it's funny that I changed ALL the fluids in my new RR the
first week I had it, but never even thought about the coolant. I just
flushed the SAAB, because the factory is adamant about changing it
every two years and using only SAAB anti-freeze. Maybe my RR will
like SAAB anti-freeze? Seems that any coolant designed for aluminum
blocked engines should work, but my SAAB tech is insistent on using
only genuine SAAB anti-freeze. Wonder why?
And what's the deal with the eco-anti-freeze that won't destroy Fido's
liver? Anybody have any experience with it?
