UK COLIN I believe the Havoline products are the same as ZEREX long life coolant made by Ashland. The container should say "GM approved.

If you look at the Havoline website, it appears they only have 3 coolant formulas, regular for older cars, "Custom" for Ford and Chrysler, and Extended Life which meets the DEXCOOL specs.

Prestone is also now an authorized manufacturer of Dexcool for GM.
