Routine service revealed that I have an antifreeze leak in the manifold area.
I have been told by two mechanics that I need to change my antifreeze from dex-cool to ethylen glycol, as the dexcoolant is dirty and sugary and I am looking at electrolisis problems in my cooling system if I don't change it. Why would a reputable company like Buick put an inferior product in their vehicle? is there a class action suit being filed against dex coolant?.
