Been phoning around today for prices on service parts etc.Anyway my car is a late 2001 model.The dealership asked me did I want red or pink coolant as they said my car would be around the time they changed from pink to red.
I'm not sure what colour is in my car at present as it's really hard to say looking at it.
Which would you use and why?Will I require 2 litres or will I need 3 litres possibly?

Thanks.Lee.

For coolant I use red, and you'll need about 5litres for a full refil I think

Sorry I mean how many litres of concentrated coolant do I require 2 or 3 litre,not the ready mix stuff.
