I know that my Volvo dealer wanted me to use their expensive ATF but the Volvo forum outsmarted them. Someone found that Mobil's 3309 is re-branded for Volvo. I can get a case of Mobil for the price of a few bottle from the dealer.
My 2013 Outback Subaru says to use Subaru Super-cool. At $26 a jug it seems an excessive price. So is there an alternative or what is the scoop on the Supre-cool.
I'm going to need this because in June I bought the Outback with 36,000 miles on it, I have a mysterious coolant loss. The dealer pressure tested the car, it lost 2 pounds in 10 minutes - dealer says it is within specs. Coolant loss is due to evaporation.
There are people on the Subaru forum that call me overly worried but I never had a car that was reported to be in good shape - lose coolant. It is a Certified Subaru. Car isn't over heating, I can smell coolant outside the car on hot days but they tell me everything is normal.
So because of this mystery loss I want to find a coolant to use in the Outback that doesn't cost so much.
