Is there a recommended coolant for V6?

Post by OutaBongolia » Sun Dec 06, 2009 5:04 pm

had a quick search on the site without success. None mentioned in my owners manual. Only says to refer to Mazda.

Cheers.

Hello there, just had a recent flush and refill on our V6, used Halfords 2 year anti-freeze/coolant [ethylene glycol] 50/50 mix :D £17.99 for 5lts

Hope this helps

Or there's Comma Extralife green - good for 3 years, as long as system is fully flushed out first. Also ethylene glycol based.
