SHEZZA Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 I'm no expert rob but I've heard it's not a good idea to mix coolants, the Nissan pre mixed coolant is the stuff you need ideally I'd say. Anyone? :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobPhoboS Posted January 21, 2017 Author Share Posted January 21, 2017 Hah, I knew someone was going to say that! I'm not in the position to use it though, I don't know how much came out, maybe 1ltr maybe more. I can get the Nissan stuff but obviously not now, I need to use the car soon, and in the morning... Thus in a pinch so not sure what to do. Or if to just plop in a bit of water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) Just put cooled boiled tap water in, as long as you're only topping it up you'll be fine. Edited January 21, 2017 by Ekona 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strudul Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Just put cooled boiled tap water in, as long as you're only topping it up you'll be fine. Would distilled water be a better alternative? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 It would, but most people don't keep some laying around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rothers2901 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 (edited) The below was taken from the NISMO product shop. Genuine Nissan radiator coolant (L248SP) has advanced formulation for aluminum and cast iron engine parts. This Nissan radiator contains no amines, no silicates, which may harm water pump seals, or borates that may cause aluminum corrosion and pitting which would cause your radiator to malfunction quicker. The genuine Nissan radiator coolant is a 100% concentrated product which means it should be diluted to a 50/50 ratio. This mixture ratio ensures maximum cooling system efficiency and excellent corrosion protection for your radiator. The pre-diluted one gallon container is already a 50% antifreeze and 50% distilled water mix. Do not add additional water when using pre-diluted Blue LLC Additional Information for using Blue LLC Blue LLC and Green-colored Nissan LLC (P/N 999MP-AF000P) are compatible with each other: Blue can be mixed / added with Green Green can be mixed / added with Blue Shipping through UPS Only. CAUTION: LLC must always be used with demineralized or distilled water, otherwise the life expectancy of the LLC (Blue or Green) will be degraded and cooling system damage may occur.
