I know this has been discussed many times before but I just want to be sure, 05 VXR Monaro, this needs topped up right?




Pink stuff from Halfords do the job ok? Should be just below the second rim?

As a matter or course, change rad cap as well if level is dropping,

Thanks for your help everyone. The cap was changed a couple of months ago but I'm not sure if the coolant was topped up at the same time.
Anyway, done now. I didn't go all the way to the top. Roger mentioned in a previous thread about making sure you didn't go past the two pipes at the top or it would get air locked?
