Coolant Conditioner Diesels

The 2002 and newer PSDs come filled with a gold-colored coolant that needs no additives. You replace it every 50,000(?) miles, that's it. The earlier PSDs with green coolant need the additive and to be periodically tested.

The gold coolant is good for 5 years or 50,000 for the first change only. 3 years and 30,000 after that.

No FW-16. Not compatible with green, red or orange coolant, so don't mix it.
