Type of coolant for Elise S2

[icepop]

Hi, need to top up the coolant in the S2, the current stuff is pink in colour. Is this a specific make/type/spec of coolant or can I use any pink type. Oh, std K series.

I can't remember the chemical stuff but I think there are two main types of common stuff, the one for the K-series elise is O.A.T. which is certainly pink at Halfords, I don't know if 'pink coolant' is always OAT.

Thanks, that seems to confirm things

There is also 3yr and 5yr OAT. No idea if the 2 can be mixed, however I've resisted the temptation to find out and stuck with whichever one was in there origianlly.
Having read some nighmare stories regarding the problems of mixing OAT and non-OAT, I decided to take even less of a risk and stay as similar as possible
