My 2003 ST has blue coolant but I will be damned if I can find anywhere that sells blue coolant here in Ontario. Red, orange, green - any colour but blue.

Can anyone help with a brand name or location? Rumour has it VW used to sell blue antifreeze but my local dealers know nothing about it.

Really don't want to mix colours - just not good for my psyche!

I have blue coolant that I buy at the dealer...

The brand is Silkolene Pro-Cool...

Hope this helps.

I use kawachem from the local kawasaki dealer, it is blue.Also right for alum. engines.If color is a concern yours may be lighter in which case the overall apperance could more "aqua" or "carribbean blue". Now on the other hand if you use a very dark or rich blue ....... :-D

You can use regular anti-freeze. Just use a 50-50 mix. You won't have any problems.
