Antifreeze VALVOLINE or OEM Honda

I went with Valvoline Xerex G40. BASF G40 is the equivalent of G12++. Valvoline/ZEREX G40 Euro Pink coolant meets this newest worldwide standard BASF G40 and German standard VW G12++ .

Brands I recommend are of course Toyota OEM Super Long Life coolant and surprisingly Walmart Asian Red Super Long Life coolant (actually comes out pink ) has never failed me and I offer that as an option to my customers. Then there is the Valvoline zerex Asian I don\u2019t highly recommend this coolant but it does work just not that well from my experience.

I have two gallons of this I've used in my 2009 B6 Passat that is leaking coolant. I don't drive it much, just once in a while. I just don't have the funds to fix the leak, which is likely the water pump. This coolant works just fine for me!

For Coolant OEM Honda the blue stuff is perfect it's almost like it's made for the car.

The correct coolant is Honda longlife which is blue. Someone has already put \"all vehicle\" green stuff in it, which will keep it cool just fine but not provide as much corrosion protection over the long term. The factory Honda coolant is designed to run for 120,000 miles; this stuff is good for maybe 30-50k before it should be changed.

Mine went 11 years with not as much as a check and it came out perfectly the same as the new stuff going in.

I run it in my 2010 Tundra. after much research and not wanting to spend the $$ on overpriced toyota branded coolant I swapped out the system when I hit 100k (Valvoline asian). That was maybe two years ago. 30k miles later no issues.

I'd recommend genuine Honda coolant. Others tend to cause water pump to leak.

There's Zerex (Valvoline) Asian car coolant (prediluted) that's made in 2 colors, blue and red, and it's supposed to be compatible

Call Valvoline (Zerex), which makes both green and Asian coolants. Most likely the green you bought is not like the green sold 20 years ago.
