The Service Manual recommends:

Can you recommend the coolant liquid you use on your ten?
'Castrol 17845600' seems like a good option, but does not say anything about being fine for aluminum radiators/engines:

Which one do you use?
Thanks

Normal car antifreeze that has the inhibitors in for diffrent metals mixed 50%with distilled water
