Hi!

Last night when driving home, my coolant gauge light up.

I was going to top the level up today, but was wondering if i needed any special kind of coolant??

What should i use???

Thank you.

I think you can get away with using distilled water?? Dont quote me on it tho :)

You can yeah but Id advise sticking some antifreeze in there for the winter months.

it will tell you how much to dilute it on the bottle mate, some anti-freeze is differnt to others. you will be best off with the blue stuff as your prop on the water pump should be steel

50/50 all year round mate

if you run it to the bottom or its not been done for ages, might be an idea to drain it and start fresh
