Default Antifreeze type
Just bought a 2007 convertible. The overflow tank is almost empty of antifreeze, the fluid in there almost looks blue

What type or brand is used in these things? No Mini dealer close to where I live but I would hop I don't have to use Mini fluids


Anyone know?

Thanks

Ron

Ok so I figured out that the antifreeze used in a Mini is blue in color. Found that at NAPA you can get antifreeze that is compatible Zerex G05
