As you can see, straight from the jug, the Mazda coolant is resisting both corrosion and freezing better than the Motomaster.

Pros: resisting corrosion and freezing

Vehicle: Mazda

I'd say to change out the coolant, and transmission fluid. DO NOT GET A TRANSMISSION FLUSH!!! Just get a place to change out the transmission filter, and top off the transmission fluid.

Cons: DO NOT FLUSH

Vehicle: Mazda 6

Yes I had low coolant in my brand new CX-30 and had to top it off 2-3 times with the FL22 fluid (factory OEM). I think some air is left in the system that gets out over time. Since then no issue with the coolant level

Pros: no issue since

Cons: low coolant initially

Vehicle: Mazda

Mileage: 94000 km

Part number: FL 22

I had my AC condenser replaced and looked at it in the parking lot and confirmed it was full of coolant, drove home, and it was low. I ordered and added some OEM coolant at home. It's been fine ever since

Pros: fine ever since

Cons: coolant was low

Vehicle: Mazda

Mileage: 57900 km

By “air intake reservoir tank”, I assume you mean it’s the coolant tank for the water-air charge cooler. We need to know what car to tell if the coolant is suitable. That “G30” on the front is the important bit.

They called her back again to say after they started working on it, it's not the water pump, but a coolant leak at the cylinder head, at the head gasket, so what was originally a water pump, is now a head gasket job, 3-4 days.

Cons: coolant leak

Vehicle: Volkswagen

Mileage: 14000 km

So you don't mix coolants. BMW coolant uses embedded teflon or something. Dump in the wrong coolant and you have to run (I kid you not) laundry detergent through the entire system several times, flush the shit out of it several times then replace every single rubber hose.

Cons: wrong coolant bad

Vehicle: BMW
