Right now AutoZone is clearing out Pentosin antifreeze. 1.5L bottles are $5 and gallons are $10.

Scored 12x bottles of SF and 12x bottles of E.

I have never heard of them either. But then again, I only use the regular old fashioned green stuff or DexCool.

The Porsche takes 6 gallons. The Audi takes 3.5 gallons.
 
I went on the Pentosin website and it seems that the 1.5 liter bottles are for European vehicles (mainly VW) while the gallon jugs are for Asian vehicles...The EL Green and Red are concentrates while the Super EL Pink and Blue are 50/50 pre-mixed...all of these Asian formula's are HOAT's that contain phosphates and appear to be the exact same except for the dye color. The only thing I don't understand is why the concentrate is only 'Extended life' while the 50/50 pre-mix is 'Super Extended Life'??? What are opinions on how long the concentrate EL can be run in a Hyundai or Mazda or Toyota?

Now you got enough for 50+ years. I hope your cars make it.

My conclusion on the Pentofrost Asian Green(A2) and Red(A1) has been that they are like the older style Asian AFs they are formulated to match. Shorter service interval for Nissan/Subaru Green and Toyota Red LL, equals ~2years/30k mi. service interval, both come/came in a concentrate. Fine for Asian applications but shorter service interval than newer premix Phoats.

Only aftermarket Asian AF with an extended service interval that comes in a concentrate is PepBoys OEM Concentrate. Haven't checked recently on availability, it seemed to be becoming more scarce.

Again, and I'm not sure why it's anyone's business, but my two current cars together take almost 10 gallons. And I go through cars pretty quick. And I do coolant flushes every 3yr/30k.

And my dad has a Jetta.

And my sister has a Rabbit.

People on this site hoard oil and buy way more than they need, but when someone who is clearly into European cars buys an excess of Euro spec'd coolant, people lose their freaking minds..

I created the thread to let people know they could get a quality coolant for ~60% off.

Now get lost.
