Never seen any "sludging". We refill with genuine GM coolant.
GM stuff was around 2 quid a litre from local dealer - think it took about 12 litres in total to refill the system when I replaced the radiator. Mechanic chum told me not to bother diluting it so I filled it entirely with coolant. Think I've got a few litres spare still as I bought a couple of cases at the time - worked out cheaper to buy by the case.
