@22:55... When are you gonna get a vacuum filler for coolant? They're cheap and it's so nice not having to burp the coolant or let the vehicle warm up before I ship it. @23:16... No, dye isn't the only difference. P-HOAT, HOAT and OAT coolants have different chemical compounds. Most Chryslers use P-HOAT, which is pink. "Universal" means it's good enough not to cause immediate catastrophic damage. Doesn't mean it's the proper fluid. Same goes for transmission and power steering fluids.

@coolantkid3428 you, sir, are ignorant. Just cause Prestone says it is, doesn't make it so. Coolant exists in different formulations for a reason. I'd think with your screen name, you'd know there's OAT, HOAT and P-HOAT coolants and that they shouldn't be used in applications they're not designed for. Prestone universal is an OAT coolant. You can use it however you want, but I'll never use it in a car that asks for HOAT or P-HOAT.

@coolantkid3428 Great. I'm gonna keep using the factory recommended formulations. As a former dealer tech, I can tell you if a car comes it with a blown head gasket or overheating and it has universal coolant in it, it's not getting covered by warranty.
