Red face Engine coolant

hi,
i had my engine coolant fill due to very low amount of fluids and was put in orange fluid instead of pink. would this cause damage to my engine or would you suggest to drain and refill with pink engine coolant G12?
thanks in advance.

Re: Engine coolant

I really don't think it's going to matter, orange is most likely havoline. Double check with your dealer, but I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Angry Re: Engine coolant

Two things, first, get that dex-cool coolant out of that car immediately, this coolant is not designed for turbo cars, second if you want to keep your factory warranty you have to use pink G-12.
