Default 2013 V60 D4 5Cyl Coolant type?

Hi All,

so getting the 'low coolant' flash up (literally a flash) when going around a round about before the car is warm, so need to 'top up'

However the halfords book doesnt tell me the type, and checking the manual it doesnt giv any info.

So essentially it appears there are 2 types, pink and blue, so any pointers as to which type it may be?

i did try to check but it was dark and i wasnt going to open it up to check the colour after a long motorway drive!

So which one do i need to top it all up? thanks
