i need to find some blue antifreeze. i have searched everywhere to no avail, i hear that VW and Audi use it in there cars, as green antifreeze kills em. i am getting ready to put my loop together, and i really need this fast. thanks for the help guys.

Well I know that if you have an Audi dealer nearby you can buy some from them.

i suppose you could go to autozone and just ask them for blue antifreeze.

CCUABIDExORxDIE · Jun 19, 2005

Doesn't Zerex make some blue stuff?

If you just want the color, Zalman makes a blue coolant additive. Don't some people use markers too?

You can buy some online here.

Yeah I saw someone do that in these forums with a green marker.

I've been wanting to try it but I'm chicken I guess.

Maybe something exotic like black with a touch of blue UV?

erm, I've seen blue anti-freeze in my garage man, its not rare or anything lol

VW and Audi are the only places that I think you are going to find blue coolant these days. I got mine from a local VW dealership, and the parts guy told me that they don't even use this anymore in their new cars.

I have the blue and I really like it.

yes you can use highlighters b/c they are uv reactive, neon yellow especially...but i read somewhere on the site that they can cause corrosion so i wouldn't suggest it. they are intended for their color, not performace.

Just type Pentosin Antifreeze in Froogle, tons of places.

s random · Jun 20, 2005

id suggest going to any non dealership shop and asking them if they will sell you any/order some for you if you dont wanna make a trip to boston

mgoode · Jun 20, 2005

who wouldnt want to go to Boston

voigts, do you have any more of the blue antifreeze? and i need the antifreeze because i have aluminum and copper in the same loop. i was stupid and bought an aluminum top Maze4, it was only 25 bucks, but it was a poor move by me.

i dont say thats a poor move by any means. thats not a bad deal for that block. so, your have some aluminum in your loop, big deal. at least u are aware of galvanic properties of metals and can prevent a catastrophe.
