    yes agree ako na 'wag ipaghahalo. Concern ko yung red color kung bakit di okay. Hindi naman siguro ibebenta yan ng Caltex if defective. hehe

    Yung OEM color ng Toyota coolant AFAIK kulay red din.

    Color has nothing to do with coolant performance or compatibility. It's just a dye mixed with the coolant chemical to easily identify leaks in the system.

    Ideally, use only a coolant type that is appropriate for your vehicle or as indicated by the owners' manual.

    sir, kasi diba the color of the coolant is the identifier kung what kind of coolant it is?

    i might be wrong.

    It's just one way to differentiate coolants. But even if the coolants were of the same color, it does not mean they're compatible.

    As other posts on this thread mention, use coolant mixed with distilled water. Rain water is highly variable in mineral content, depending on what is in the atmosphere at the time it rained, how long it rained, what location the rain is at, etc.
