Jun 2009 at 12:06 You dilute the VX Red stuff 50/50 and just checked the capacity 9.5 Litres so you need a 5L container of coolant. Flushing the system then adding 5L coolant neat and topping up with water will achieve the correct concentration. Kevin

Jun 2009 at 12:07 If doing a coolant change, I would remove the bottom rad hose and let the system drain. Refill with water, then drain again. Refit the hose, add 5 ltrs neat coolant and top up with fresh water. Resultant mix should be 50/50 or thereby....
