irena Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Hi! Could you suggest me which antifreeze would be the best for my '04 impreza WRX? it was previously filled with purple antifreeze (that's as much as I know, when last service has been done), but my radiator started leaking so had to replace it and now need to fill it with new antifreeze, but there are so many for sale! it's too confusing Please help me :) Thanks in advance!

Mystery_Machine Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 look for OATS (organic acid technology)antifreeze (halfords) that's what goes in my 03 WRX.... I don't think you can actually go on colour as many companies use different stuff in there products.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stants Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Just get a non silicate based one as above the oat stuff will be fine, just put a hose pipe in the top hose and leave it running with bottom hose disconnected and the rad for 5 mins that will wash out all the old stuff then what ever you put in won't react with the old stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
