Dirty Rat I don't know if its any good to you, but when I enquired about servicing our new shopping trolly (which also is all alloy) the GMH dealer was very adament that the coolant should have a special GMH supplied additve, He even went to the trouble to extract a sample from the over flow bottle and tested it for the correct mix proportions, I didn't see him do it so I don't know what colour it was, He did tell me that the correct additive is available at most HSV dealers, and the correct proportions are on the container.
