R Coolant

[Jh72i]

Hi RCZ-R owners, I notice my coolant is well below minimum so should be topped up. My question is with what coolant? Previously with my old 200 I bought from the local general motor stuff shop & mixed but I am led to believe I need to be more careful with the R. Tnx

I noticed mine has been going down a lot lately, been using Halfords pink coolant. Recommended when i entered the reg

Could be coming from the water pump mine had a slight leak that was pretty much non existent , I put some liquid rad weld in the header tank an it’s ok now but if it starts again I will put a new water pump on

I had pink in the 200 but it’s blue in the R.

I hope Halfords haven't stitched me up as I just tried it again and it coming up with the same pink coolant

They say you shouldn't mix blue and pink as they can react and form a gloopy gunge
