toyotasuprauk Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I'm going to do a service soon, and will change the coolant. I already have 5 litres of coolant, can’t remember the brand but might get some Toyota for life red stuff if it’s not too expensive. I understand I need two cans but does anyone know the cost from Toyota? I’ve searched but can’t find prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonW Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I flushed out my whole system, needed about 6L to re-fill it. Cost about £20. You shouldn't use anything else other than the toyota stuff!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D3xt3r Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 For a TT Car you will need 9,5L for the manual and 9,4L for the Automatic one for a full coolant change. Cost is around 15pounds+VAT for 5L. Just brought my car to the dealer for radiator change and coolant flush but I'm just gonna use normal glycol cooland with and 50/50 mix.

toyotasuprauk Posted November 21, 2005 Author Share Posted November 21, 2005 Its for a manual NA. Whatever happens I guess I'll need two 5 litre cans. £35 for coolant seems pretty expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D3xt3r Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Just use glycol based coolant in a 50/50 mix with destilled water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyotasuprauk Posted November 21, 2005 Author Share Posted November 21, 2005 I'll have to check to see if the stuff I have is glycol based. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
