During my oil research which I recently undertook, I spoke to a very helpful guy from Castrol. He told me that the Castrol Coolant that is approved by LR Au is "Castrol Antifreeze NF"

If it is indeed Texaco XLC, look for it at a Caltex garage or depot.
TD5's used that coolant, it was supplied by Caltex Australia and Caltex Long Life organic acid coolant is one and the same as Land Rover OAT.

Texaco/Chevron = Caltex

Google "Penrite" and then search Land Rover. They have exactly the right stuff available from Auto Pro Repco etc. - Every other fluid that you will need too.

I used the Penrite long-life stuff from Repco.

Would there be any problem using a nulon coolant ( red) to top up my 2.2 Puma
I note they have a heavy duty diesel version they claim suitable for all vechicles in Australia

the Land Rover reccomended coolant Texaco or Halvoline seems hard to buy

If it's their Long Life as used in the TD5 any Caltex servo has it on the shelf (usually)

This here is the one to get. The heavy duty diesel one isn't quite the right type for these engines. I can't remember what the reason was though.






The Tectaloy stuff is good too and supposedly made in Australia





Put some of this stuff through the system if it hasn't been cleaned in a while
