Guess I am asking for trouble now. I have to much info. about coolant now. To little before I had mine flushed/changed to 'Peak Global LifeTime'. I found a website with 'coolant experts', that you can ask questions to. After a few emails, I now am waiting for my car to leak, blow its water pump, and self destruct ! Now I am told that DexCool is a 'HOAT' coolant. Which I think it a 'top top' quality coolant. It is somekind of hybrid coolant, that GM invented...for their cars. But I still hear/read that 50% of mechanics/people think it is liquid acid, 50% think it is liquid gold in the coolant system.
Now I am being told that the Global ISN'T a long life coolant, it is like a 2-3 year one, and just wait for the leaks to start, and the water pump to fail! I changed it because it was 10 years old, I am TRYING to protect the pump, the old stuff must not have any protection left in it. Right? When it was flushed, it has SOME gunk in it, took 3-4 flushes to get rid of it all, so that sounded bad.
Now it has clean NEW coolant with new protective chemicals in it. So thats good...right? It's like I thought I bought a 'diamond' for my car, and I really got a 'cubic zirconium'. Anyway anyone have an opinion? About getting rid of 10 year old coolant, and putting in new 'Peak Global Lifetime coolant', did I get screwed, or should I have gone to Chevy and gotten DexCool, even though it is 50/50 that it is considered liquid death to a coolant system.
