I think you have answered your own question if the Repco coolant is damaging your car and you put 3 litres in your dads Laser and his radiator is blocked and has to be replaced that would tell me to through the Repco crap away. I use Nulon OATS pre mix never had a days trouble with it Repco say there coolant is made by a quality manufacturer but can't or won't say who this alone would make me suspicious of there product hope you fix this problem soon.

It also eliminates the need to worry about quality of the water you mix with concentrates, as it is used straight.

I was under the impression TD5’s ran the blue OAT stuff.
After they had with corrosion problems in a wide variety of vehicles the local mechanic who is also a Landrover specialist, as well as tractors and other farm machinery only use premixed coolant as whatever Hunter Water was using to make the water potable was also causing a reaction with concentrated coolants and cooling systems.
I've had no problems since only using premixed coolant.
I was under impression you still only used demin water even with concentrate? Tap water is only an emergency measure to be promptly removed?
Just out of curiosity, what radiator type is in it? Alloy?
D2? ... only alloy wouldn't it be?
Can you get anything other than Aluminium radiators in a D2?
Ive seen one with Copper - I cringed....Quote:
