Red/ green coolant
 

Well... I've been worrying about something I did a week ago.

I lifted the hood to check the coolant level and noticed it was very close to the minimum, was busy and late so I didn't have time to go to the dealers and ended up topping it up at a gas station (pretty simple right?) I had a red colored coolant originally and the guy at the station tops it up with green coolant before I had time to notice. Do you think this is a problem? Do I need to take it to the dealers and get it flushed? Everything is normal at the moment. Engine temp, performance etc.

We just went down this road with @radroach

Hey, new to automobile folks, unless you live where it gets down to -40 degrees F, if your coolant level is just a little low, I suggest you top it off with distilled water, as a "fix" for your OCD ...... :popcorn:

Well taking it to the dealers.

Thanks for the advice/link humfrz took car to the dealers, they flushed it out and replaced it with oem coolant. Total cost: 100$

Now, don't you feel all better ....... :thumbsup:
