Is a 5ltr concentrated can sufficient anti-freeze to do a full change?- what is the dilution ratio?- if I buy a 20ltr can it be used in engines that use blue anti-freeze? It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

According to Steve's site the TDV6 capacity is 10.15l
Quote:Cooling System Capacity 10.15l % Mix of O.A.T. Antifreeze to suit climate
http://www.advancedfactors.co.uk/1-service...-180-c.asp
UK climate is normally 50:50 concentrate:water.
No you should not mix blue and OAT coolants. Vehicles designed for blue should not use OAT and vice versa. 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
Any issues with the site let me know!

Blimey that was a super quick reply, thanks, I never thought of Steve for anti-freeze. It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.
