[QUOTE="TrainTrac, post: 903903, member: 55399"] Both Prestone and Zerex meet or exceed manufacturers specs with their products. Here are links to pages showing which of their products are recommended for OEM specs: <a href="http://www.valvoline.com/pdf/Zerex_CoolantChart.pdf">Valvoline/Zerex Coolant</a> <a href="http://www.prestone.com/carcare/faq.php#q4">Prestone Coolant</a> Based on these recommendations, if you use the product that corresponds to the OEM spec for your vehicle, you're fine. Of course the car manufacturer would [i]prefer[/i] that you use OEM coolant, 'cause that's more $$$ back in their pockets. But it won't harm your car if use the right aftermarket coolant. I've been running Zerex in my Trac for a while now, and not had any problems whatsoever. [/QUOTE]
