exposure to cold (negative temps) shortens the life of some coolants and can increase the formation of silicate crud in the radiator.

another tick for OAT coolant. No silicates to drop out of suspension.

thanks guys

I will probably take it to a readiator place anyway to reduce the hassle and stress... I will confirm how they do it...

any radiator places you could recommend? Brissy area...

thanks

i just bought a DiscoI, Tdi where the heater core had ben bypassed. I had a look in the radiator and he coolant was brown and rusty. I flued it immediately using Nulon Radiator flush for around 1 hour only. The muck that came out was scarey!. However, after 1 week and a few hundred k's, the new coolant is still green and that's reassuring.
