did the 95 aurora come with dex-cool or green antifreeze.i called 3 local olds/buick dealerships and the all gave different answers..i checked the antifreeze in my revisor tank and the color is so faded i can't tell if it's green or red..i even folded a white napkin up and dipped it in and still could not tell the color.please let me know..also what is the best way to flush ALL the old antifreeze out..thanks much

Go to a shop that has a wynns coolant flush system. My dealer has one as well as the local BP shop.

I know for a FACT that the OEM coolant in my 1995 Aurora was the traditional GREEN Anti-Freeze/Coolant. I have changed it one time in it's nearly 9 years, 120K miles. There is a requirement for the anti-corrosion tablets and it is alluded to on page 6-19 of the owner's manual and additional details are provided in the G-Platform Service Manual.

I do not deviate from OEM specs if at all possible. Further, I believe that vehicles that use Dex-Cool as the OEM coolant reference it by its Trade Name in the owner's manual and perhaps on placards under the hood.

My 95 definitely had/has the green stuff as well.

thanks for the response,,it's really strange why i got 3 different answers from three different dealerships..in fact one said he was 100% sure the 95 aurora came with the dex-cool..the other stated,only 96 and newer used dex-cool and the 3rd said some 95's used dex and some green..
