This. It's cheaper than getting the premixed Zerex because you'll need two gallons of Zerex while the genuine one you get only 1 gal and mix it with 1 gal of distilled water. But first drain your system and refill once or twice with 100% distilled water, drive the car a bit then flush. This is to flush out the old coolant so you don't mix two different coolants. The system will always keep about 1 liter inside the heater matrix. Never flush with tap water, only with distilled. Bec careful with the radiator plastic drain, very fragile
