The stuff has been around forever. How old is your car now? Is it sludgy or damaged? If you perform the proper service, I don't see why it would be a problem.

However, it's your car and you should use what makes you comfortable.

These coolant threads crack me up. Better to have folks think you a fool than to open mouth and remove all doubt.

It's all in this THREAD.
