check the coolant in my sig its supposed to go for 600,000 just needs a additive at 300,000

would I ever let it go that long NO WAY 100,000 is what im going

as far as a flush if I were you I wouldnt chance it just drain and fill if you want to change to elc
theres been to many cases where the good old flush plugged the cooler up
as long as the 2 deltas are ok drain and fill if it starts plugging then you could try a flush with some cleaners in it

Thanks, I am a little scared of the vc9. However, if using the vc9 clogs the cooler I think your just uncovering the problem earlier.... it was going to clog anyway......I guess I'll be cautious anyway..... Thanks again
