Toyota Coolent & Subaru Long Life Super Coolant Interchangeable?
 
Hi, I was wondering if I can use Subaru Long Life Super Coolant with my FRS? Are the Toyota Super Long Life Coolant the same as the Subaru's Long Life Super Coolant? Thanks.

There's actually another Toyota Long Life coolant, it's blue. According to a master tech at Longo, it's the same coolant used in the Tesla's (I asked because I saw him top off my coolant with a jug labeled "Tesla")

This is the one you want, and it is equivalent to the Subie blue long life coolant:

Toyota Super Longlife Coolant C0009-00120(Pink) is not the same product as the FR-S Super Longlife Blue C0009-00122. The Super Longlife Blue is the same coolant Subaru uses.

If you want all those fluids and other stuff, 90% of the time, Subie dealership is cheaper.
