Let me start this out with the statement that I'm cheap. I'm also lazy. Probably lazier that cheap, so I don't mind spending cash to save me work. Being lazy, and not wanting to incur unnecessary repairs, I'm pretty "retentive" about maintaining my vehicles.
A while back I picked up a couple of cases of G-05 to put in my 4 GM vehicles after having Dexcool problems with one very properly maintained cooling system, and one not not so properly maintained vehicle. After deciding that Dexcool worked well with dry GM intake manifolds, I only converted one vehicle, and ended up with a lot of extra G-05.
Not having fully informed myself on the subject of proper anti freeze in Japanese vehicles, I converted the wife's Toyota RAV 4 to Prestone All Makes, All Models a few years ago. I've since seen the error of my ways.
My question. After an extensive flush, can I convert to G-05 (that I have a lot on hand), or will Zerex Asian or Toyota pink provide enough of a benefit for me to pick some up?
