I'm planning on changing the coolant in my 2004 2.7crd soon.

So I've read I need to use this HOAT type anti freeze (very expensive from dealers, cheaper elsewhere ?) but Im also reading you dilute it with DI water, not tap water. Is that correct ?

Cheers

Yep, that's the stuff I bought. Just did the job yesterday.

Had to drop the front bash plate to expose the lower radiator hose. Then drain/fill, drive and flush 5 times to completely remove the old antifreeze.
Did a 50% mix with distilled water (we call it DI water at work) and now I'm good for 5 years I hope !
