Concern Toyota is known worldwide as the largest manufacturer of Asian cars. They are distinguished by versatility, variety of models, ease of operation and availability. For cars to serve longer, the manufacturer recommends using only an authorized original antifreeze.

Description of original antifreeze Toyota

Currently there are two original Toyota Antifreeze:

• Toyota Long Life Coolant;
• Toyota Super Long Life Coolant.

Until 2002 in the factory setting in the Toyota Marks, the first antifreeze was poured mainly - LLC. Since 2002, he came to replace the second - Super LLC. Now it is it used in most models of this brand.

Nevertheless, both antifreezes have a lot in common. The basis of each of them is the propylene glycol of the highest quality, as well as powerful corrosion inhibitors and balanced modern additives. That's just each of them - their own, therefore, these two antifreeze is strictly prohibited. Otherwise, the mixture will significantly give up as separately used cooling fluids.

Despite the fact that for the factory fill in Toyota machines is now used predominantly coolant Long Life, its predecessor should not be written off. Antifreeze Toyota LLC can still be purchased for use in personal car, in a free sale and in the container of different volumes.

Of course, it is worth noting that both refrigerants are manufactured and as ready to use coolant, and as a concentrate. The latter is not suitable for use in pure form, it must be diluted with water. How to breed, in what proportion depends on the climatic conditions in which the coolant is expected to use and the maximum minus temperature in the region. An optimal ratio suitable even for the northern regions is considered one to one. At the same time, protection will be provided on average up to minus 40 degrees Celsius. The minimum volume of the concentrate should be one third of the total liquid volume, and the maximum is 70%.

To interfere with the concentrated antifreeze is best with distilled water, but if there is no such, you can also use a plumbing. It is strictly forbidden to dilute the concentrate with water from rivers, lakes, natural wells.

Important! If it is not possible to buy the manufacturer of Toyota antifreeze recommended, it is possible to use analogs to replace, with an appropriate basis and additive package. Without the need for antifreeze different manufacturers It is better not to mix, it can significantly worsen their characteristics and reduce the service life.

Both Toyota antifreeze passed numerous tests and tests, based on the results of which it can be argued that they comply with all manufacturer's applications and world requirements and industry standards. Positive reviews Car enthusiasts confirm it.

Toyota Long Life Coolant

Ready liquid and LLC concentrate
Antifreeze Toyota Long Life Coolant Red is traditional antifreeze Based on propylene glycol using high-quality additives and corrosion inhibitors. Externally, it is clean, transparent liquid of red.

Red Antifreeze Toyota has good lubricating abilities, has a high degree of protection of the cooling system from wear and the occurrence of corrosion foci. It has good heat sink properties, perfectly protects the engine from overheating and supercooling.

Antifreeze Toyota Long Life Crailant is suitable for use in FDS both freight and passenger cars Toyota. The replacement of antifreeze is carried out three years after the initial fill, and every two years - with subsequent fills.

Articles and Volc antifreeze package volumes:

• 08889-80015 - 1 l;
• 08889-80032 - 4 l;
• 08889-80014 - 5 l;
• 08889-80017 - 60 liters.

If necessary, you can interfere with this antifreeze with silicate, hybrid cooling fluids.

Toyota Super Long Life Coolant

Antifreeze Toyota Super Long Life Coolant is the finished antifreeze and concentrate produced on the basis of propylene glycol using organic acid technology (carboxylate) using powerful modern corrosion inhibitors. In its chemical composition there are no silicates, nitrates and others harmful substanceswhich adversely affect the engine performance, worsen heat exchange, contribute to the formation of deposits within the cooling system. They cause harm and the environment. So, this antifreeze is not only safe for the motor, but also environmental.

Externally antifreeze Toyota Super Long Life Kilant - Transparent Pure Pink Fluid. It corresponds to the Volkswagen standard G12 or C12 + - for modern carboxylate antifreeze with a long service life. His term is really long: it will be changed on average every five years.

Antifreeze Toyota Pink perfectly prevents the formation of corrosion, cavitation, not foaming, does not oxidize. It helps maintain the normal operating temperature inside the engine, prolongs its resource.

Articles and volumes of SLLC antifreeze packaging:

• 08889-80070 - 2 l;
• 08889-80071 - 4 l;
• 08889-80072 - 5 liters.

Important! Antifreeze Toyota SLLC Pink It is strictly forbidden to interfere with others, as well as (regarding the finished for the use of fluid), it is impossible to top up with water. Otherwise, the substance will come, and the further operation of the cooling system will be impossible.

How to distinguish fake

It is impossible to say that original antifreeze, suitable for one brand of cars, are forged as often, as often forged the most running, universal, branded coolant liquids. However, this is not excluded at all. Therefore, the canister with eg needs to be carefully inspecting. Here are what signs can issue a fake:

• coarse, uneven seams or defects in their area;
• a lid, scratches, chippers, other traces of autopsy in its edges;
• unevenly glued labels, bubbles and folds on them, traces of glue;
• inappropriate reality information, or inflicted with errors;
• lubricated text, uneven lines;
• unreadable release date and filling.

If something in the appearance of the canister alarms, causes doubts, then it is better to double-check. Do not pour antifreeze to the tank until there is no full confidence in his quality.

SUPER LONG LIFE COOLANT Toyota Camry. 50 Replacing Antifreeze Pink

How to properly dilute antifreeze with water

Alexei

Mikhail, good afternoon! As far as I understand, the original antifreeze is two types of LLC (red) and Super LLC (pink).
1. I would like to know the changeance of the replacement of both liquids.
2. What can be addressed in pink antifreeze (concentrate or finished solution)?
3. If I understand that the red antifreeze on an ethylene glycol basis, and pink - on carboxylate (judging by the increased period of replacement relative to red)
4. CRWN 99 auto, LLC sticker, which antifreeze will advise to use with a complete replacement?

Car Toyota Camry 12.2003. It drew attention that the fluid is not enough in the expansion tank. For the topping, the antifreeze of Toyota Long Life Coolant (Concentrated Red) was bought, diluted and felt 200-300. Then (unfortunately, then he read the manual carefully, and the antifreeze of Toyota Super Long Life Coolant is specified.
Questions: How critical is such mixing for the engine (and whether the antifreeze replacement interval will be reduced), and how often antifreeze changes in russian conditions (on the manual 160 thousand km, in this conference once slipped, which is 40 thousand).

Dear Dmitry! Camry meets and super (he pink) and the usual "Long Live" (red) antifreeze. Super is not convenient because it is not only impossible to top up other antifreeze, but also water. When mixed with other antifreeges, pink antifreeze can curl with all the ensuing consequences. If you have not happened, either chopped red, it is chemically compatible even with blue, or the additive was very small or the contents expansion tank Not mixed with the rest of the cooling system. In any case, Luha replace antifreeze and not risk. In addition, attention should be paid to the reason for lowering the level. Unfortunately on vehicles with plastic parts, their destruction often occurs with the subsequent leakage of antifreeze. Camry is, more often, the lower radiator tank. It is changed under warranty along with antifreeze.
Good luck, Mikhail.

Dear Dmitry! The initiative of such an inspection belongs to Toyota Motor. There is a suspicion that the fastening bolt slotted compound Installed incorrectly, past Lyasy. From those machines that we checked, the defect was not confirmed and the replacement was not required. This operation can be held from any official dealer, we at least "other people" take cars.
Good luck, Mikhail.

Toyet recommends only one type of fluid:
Coolant concentrate with increased replacement period:
- 08889-80015 1 liter
- 08889-80014 5 liter
- 08889-80017 60 liters
And the red it or pink depends only on the amount of water of which you dilute when replacing. In our strip, rather red. With water 50 to 50, if the previous owner in order to compensate for leakage with water did not spread it until it is impossible.
Buy 3.5 liters of concentrate, the rest of the water. And all will be well. Turn into the system more glasses of dispersion per year accounts for malfunction. Look for the cause.

It turned out the officials that.
The original antifreeze of Toyota is red and pink. The one is called Long Life Coolt, and which is a pink called Super Long Life Coolant. "Super is not convenient because it is not only impossible to top up other antifreeze, but also water. When mixed with other antifreeges, pink antifreeze can curl with all the ensuing consequences." (c) Pink antifreeze is poured into cars recently release. The period of replacement of pink (super) is about 160 t.km., I do not know the replacement time. And it is not clear how to distinguish red from pink. I suspect that the one that is pink on a carboxylate basis (judging by the deadline for the replacement), as liquida moth. In general, some kind of confusion :)

In short, it became somehow boring, you don't need to do anything in the car ... just plunge non-freeze ... I decided to add antifreeze, and then in the tank somehow to the area of \u200b\u200bthe minimum. Bought a red - Toyota Long Life Coolant. In the manual, Toyota Super Long Life Coolant is registered, but I read it later. Used that antifreeze in colors can be mixed, did not really worry, but I threw the question of the forum Nika-Motors. Good people said - they are not mixed, and categorically - urgently change. I looked into the tank - and there the antifreeze curled, the sediment fell and everything. Outcome - 2000 rubles for replacing antifreeze. And he changed to Kuntsevo - they could not believe in any way, forced to change forced the violence. Moor - do not plot anything, dealers are not everyone, but what is flooded - no one knows there. By 40 thousand. Change antifreeze according to anyone on the usual red.

Nevertheless, antifreeze curled, in the post it was written that first everything was fine .. Mikhail was right :) And you can describe in more detail? Or is it still difficult to determine?
You write "for 40 thousand. Change antifreeze according to anyone on the usual red." I did not understand, the officials change any antphine on red, i.e. On the one that is not folded? Do full replacement With washing? By the way, now they are sold and the other ...
Thank you. Regards, Alexey.

At first I did not notice, and I don't see much in the tank, but after I received an answer from Nick Motors, I looked at the addiction, i.e. With a flashlight. It was unpleasant surprised.
The color of pink - I would call it more purple, how he was in the tuning table of the Soviet color TV. From red, even diluted in half - it differs straight, but they must be installed next to the transparent dishes. There was no Supper in Bitz and Kuntsevo, they said that he was only at the factory, on sale or there was no service. I changed antifreeze in Kuntsevo, they said that they change antifreeze on all machines to the usual red, Toyota Long Life Coolt. The fact that antifreeze is not mixed - they could not believe long, tried to dissuade from replacement. An interesting question (ask him to yourself, the happy owners of new cars) - And if the official tops the antifreeze, then someone draws attention, which one?

We have already discussed some codes of antifreeze with you ... But I want to dwell on the fact that soon winter and many have yet changed antifreeze ... and probably looking for those codes or recommendations for replacement ...

The original antifreeze of Toyota are two types:
Long Life Coolt (LLC) - Red
Super Long Life Coolt (S LLC) - Pink

Mixing in the system of these types of antifreezes is extremely recommended. Can lead to flushing the entire system.
08889-80070 Antifreeze Toyota Super LLC, 2l.
08889-80071 Antifreeze Toyota Super LLC, 4l.
08889-80072 Antifreeze Toyota Super LLC, 5l.

08889-80014 Antifreeze Toyota LLC, 5l.
08889-80015 Antifreeze toyota llc, 1l.
08889-80017 Antifreeze Toyota LLC, 60l.
08889-80032 Antifreeze toyota llc, 4l.

Is it true that the original red antifreeze is better than others that the market offers us? It is clear that the "Under Toyota" produce a lot of all sorts of bread with the original shield))) ... Let's look at everything in order and decide what to do and how do we like to be \u003d) Whatever the radiator or the engine does not kill ... but there are not Original substitutes that fall under the recommendation of Toyota, where there is no compulsory color matching! After all, there is a document: the main national standards for JIS K2234 cooling fluids (Japan) and the recommendation from Toyota, which says, antifreeze should be without a silicate-based organic "corrosion inhibitor". Satisfy this 2nd conditions:

SCT MANNOL LONGLIFE ANTIFREEZE AG12 +
SCT MANNOL ANTIFREEZE AF12 + -40 ° C
Texaco Havoline XLC + B2 (OF02)
Texaco Havoline XLC + B50 / 50
Maintain Fricofin G12 Plus
Ranoil Kuttenkeuler ANF 40 (Color: Blue)

Akira LLC (green)
Akira LLC (red)
KYK SUPER GRADE COOLANT (Blue or Red)
XADO Antifreeze BS.
Hi-Gear Antifreeze "GOLD"
COOL STREAM PREMIUM 40 (Orange)

And so for information:

Currently, antifreeze of anti-corrosion additives are divided into silicate, and carboxylate antifreeze. Silicate antifreeze, protecting the OS from corrosion, in the process of operation covers the entire inner surface with a thin layer of scale, which worsens heat exchange in the OS and reduces its effectiveness. Manufacturers color silicate antifreeze, as a rule, in green or blue.

Carboxylate antifreeze contain corrosion inhibitors based on organic acids. They do not form a thick protective layer over the entire surface of the system, and are adsorbed only in places of corrosion to form protective layers with a thickness of no more than 0.1 microns. In addition, carboxylate antifreeze has a longer service life (5 years old against 3 at silicate) and the best detergent properties, which allows you to do without flushing the OS during the change of antifreeze. Manufacturers are painted carboxylate antifreeze, as a rule, in red.

The manufacturer of Toyota himself does not recommend using "purely red antifreeze", its recommendation concerns only the use of the original fluid, or the correspondence of the composition of certain chemical norms. It does not interfere with other manufacturers to produce antifreeze with similar operational characteristics Being not tied to the color. And Toyota's recommendation will never touch the color, because some Asian manufacturers are divided by the colors of the freezing temperature of antifreeze. (Red Maximum -30, Green -25, Yellow -20 Also antifreeze is not recommended to mix, even when the colors match (and change completely !! Especially - if you do not know which fluid is filled into the radiator !!!), the widespread opinion on compatibility Antifreeze in colors - erroneously, the collar coincidence does not guarantee the use of identical additives, and the result of the interaction of various additives may be deterioration of anti-corrosion and lubricating properties.

Any antifreeze is a mixture of ethylene glycol (polypropylene glycol), water, dye and additive package. By the way, Tososol is also antifreeze. Initially, it was a namnoclastic designation of antifreeze specially designed for vazovsky machines when building a plant in Tolyatti. Italians did not suit the quality of the antifreeze 156 in the USSR at that time, they demanded to create new antifreeze. Tosol is an abbreviation: technology of organic synthesis ol (alcohol on chemical nanamboretura). Now this name has become simply nominal. In essence, Tosol is the type of antifreeze, but it does not fit us !!!.

And so if you consider antifreeses of all manufacturers, each manufacturer has its own package of additives, including even in the line of one manufacturer, antifreeze may differ in the number and composition of the additives used. Additives can be anti-corrosion, antiphen, reducing the effect on rubber, etc. If you look back in the past, in the 70s, European manufacturers have decided to create a cooling fluid classification. And three classes were taken.

G11- Ethylene glycol is used, as a rule, the cheapest coolant, with a small package of additives. This class recorded green color. By the way, the colors were imposed in order to distinguish the liquids of different classes. Before that, the clads were colorless.

G12.- Ethylene glycol and carboxylate compounds are used. Due to the fact that the anti-corrosion film is created only in places of foci, and does not cover all the inner surfaces, the heat sink when using this antifreeze is more efficient than that of G11. The best suitable for high-breasted and temperature-loaded engines. At the expense of a more advanced package of Zhi in this class is more expensive. Behind this class fixed red.

G13.- Polypropylene glycol is used. This is a more eco-friendly product (not poisonous, faster decomposes). Europe is chasing environmental friendliness, so they create such products. By the way, these are the most expensive cooling fluids. This class fixed yellow or orange. In Russia, no manufacturer makes fluid class G13. They did not grow yet, so that the environment is chasing for such money \u003d).

But most Russian and Asian manufacturers do not adhere to this classification. Take the same TCL: He has both clad and green and red class G11, but they differ in the additive package (red more perfect). Therefore, the manufacturer entered the color separation to differentiate the product for the final buyer. Take for example the original Hondovsky antifreeze - it is made of green (well, so they wanted), but in its properties it corresponds to the G12 class. Here is from here and confusion. In general, do not cling to the color, take at least a blue antifreeze to be high so that it is high quality and corresponding to the temperature mode of your engine (for Honda Top. The exhibition at a pressure of 1.1 should be no less than 108 degrees).

As for corrosion: it all depends on the additive package, as well as on its balance. At first, almost increasingly high-quality products are equally protected from corrosion, but over time, cheap additives are being developed, decomposed and in the cooling system circulates only glycol and water to be gone, naturally does not go about any speech protection. Therefore, if you pour the TCL and change it every 6-12 months, nothing terrible even for Hondovsky engines will not happen, but you can buy expensive antifreeze and change it once 3-4 years. This is the case of the buyer.

About mixing theoretically: it is allowed to mix the classes G11 and G12 of one manufacturer. It is possible to change the color.

In emergency cases (in a long trip, you can mix out those of different manufacturers, but as quickly as possible to replace to fresh with a complete flushing. Due to the different composition of the additives, they can start interacting and falling into a precipitate, worsening the properties of the coolant.

About European manufacturers: now 90% of the European market of additive packages occupied by BASF. For no other decades, they are already manufactured by the so-called superconcentrate for classes G11 and G12 (just a package of additives). This product has its own Glysantin brand.

Manufacturers such as Castrol, Mobil, Agip, Addinoil, etc. Basovsky superconcentrate acquire, water and ethylene glycol are added, facing the canisters and sell. :))). The same AWM is also manufactured from this superconcentrate. So that the Kastrovrovsk Anti-Fiz, that Mobile is that AWM - inside the same thing.

Toyota autoconecern is known not only by machines, but also automotive chemistry and special means. Manufacturer recommends using car service own brand Original authorized antifreeze.

General characteristics

Toyota manufactures two original antifreeze:

In the factory setting in Toyota cars until 2002, only the first antifreeze was flooded with LLC. The second antifreeze, Toyota Super Long Life Coolant began to float after 2002. To date, it is used in most cars brand.

Both antifreeze possess similar properties. Each of them is based on high-quality propylene glycol in combination with corrosion inhibitors and modern additives. You cannot combine antifreeze, because their additives differ radically. Otherwise, the resulting mixture will be given in its characteristics to other cooling fluids.

Despite the fact that recent models Toyota uses Antifreeze Super Long Life, its previous version - Long Life - Do not write off from accounts. Antifreeze "Toyota Long Life" is available in free sale to this day and is widespread among the car owners.

Both types of refrigerant are produced as in the form of finished and in the form of a concentrate. The latter before replacement must be diluted with water. Specific proportions depend on the climatic conditions of operation of the antifreeze "Toyota" and the lowest temperature in the region. For the northern regions, the ratio of one to one is considered optimal. The mixture ensures the protection of the engine at temperatures up to -40 degrees. The minimum volume of the concentrate should be 30%, maximum - 70%.

The concentrated antifreeze is diluted with distilled water, but it can be used with a tap. Water from natural natural sources is not suitable for dilution of concentrate.

As the replacement of Toyota antifreeze, you can use analogues with an appropriate basis and additives. Cooling fluids different marks It is better not to mix because it can reduce their operational period and worsen the characteristics.

Both antifreeze Toyota passed tests and tests in the company's laboratories, the results of which confirm that they comply with all the standards of both the industry and the manufacturer.

Classic antifreeze created on the basis of propylene glycol with the addition of corrosion inhibitors and high-quality additives. Liquid clean, red.

Antifreeze "Toyota" has excellent lubricators, high degree protection against corrosion and wear, excellent heat sink properties, protects the engine from supercooling and overheating. The liquid is compatible with seals and rubber pipes used by the Toyota manufacturer when creating cars.

Purpose

Antifreeze is suitable for use in cargo and passenger engines toyota cars. Provides effective protection Motors made of cast iron, iron, copper alloys, aluminum, a variety of soldiers. The replacement of the coolant must be carried out three years after the first fill and every two next year.

Antifreeze can be mixed with hybrid, silicate and cooling compositions. Has tolerances to use in car engines japanese marks Lexus and Daihatsu. The manufacturer recommends antifreeze to protect motors from high-temperature corrosion during operation in high load conditions.

Cooling liquid of concentrated and finished type, created on the basis of propylene glycol for carboxylate technology with the addition of modern corrosion inhibitors. It does not include silicates, nitrates and other substances that are able to have a negative effect on the efficiency of the engine, worsen heat exchange and entail the formation of deposits inside the mechanism. Accordingly, antifreeze is considered safe both for the engine and for the environment.

Antifreeze "Toyota Super Long Life Coulante" - pure transparent pink liquid. It complies with G12 or G12 + from Volkswagen and can be replaced with a long operational period. Replaced every five years, recommended for motors of any modern cars Toyota, including for Toyota Avensis.

Antifreeze prevents corrosion and cavitation mechanisms, does not oxidize and does not foam. Supports optimal operating temperature In the engine and prolongs its work resource.

Toyota SLLC cooling fluid can not be mixed with similar compositions and dilute with water. This can lead to a fluid coagulation, which makes it difficult to work the cooling system.

How to distinguish fake

Original antifreezes suitable for a specific car brand are forged not as often as universal, but it is impossible to completely exclude the probability of fake. What antifreeze "Toyota" is original, and what - no? Falsification is determined by the following features:

• defects in the seams of canisters;
• the cover that is loosely adjacent to the ring, the presence of chips, scratches and other traces of autopsy in its edges;
• unevenly glued labels, the presence of traces of glue, folds and bubbles on them;
• the information applied to the package is false or contains errors;
• the text is blurred, there are uneven lines;
• date of release and bottling is difficult to read.

If a appearance Canisters cause doubts, it is better to abandon the acquisition of antifreeze and its subsequent operation.

How to fill antifreeze

Replacing cooling toyota liquids It can be carried out without contacting service centers, on their own. Before conducting the procedure, the fluid level in the expansion tank according to the MIN and MAX marks located on it is checked. The volume of antifreeze should be within the indicated designations. After that, replace the coolant.

How to pour antifreeze:

• Under the radiator placed the container in which the waste coolant will merge.
• Before merge the antifreeze from the cooling system, you must drown the engine.
• The lid of the expansion tank is removed.
• Tubes for drain on the cylinder block and radiator are unscrewed. They are twisted only after the antifreeze is completely stalking.
• The level of the new coolant should be slightly lower than the maximum mark.
• The lid of the expansion tank is tightly closed.

Safety technique

When replacing antifreeze, it is necessary to follow safety rules, as at any other work with the car. Their violation can lead to breakdowns or cause serious injury. The procedure is carried out under compliance next rule:

• The car's engine must be muffled. It is necessary to wait for the time to its complete cooling. If this item is non-compliance, you can get serious burns in the process of replacing antifreeze.
• If the cooling fluid has hit the mucous membrane or skin, the damaged area must be quickly rinsed with a large amount of clean water.
• It is advisable to work in gloves, as some details can be hot.
• Mix the original antifreeze toyota to each other. It is advisable to use the same composition.

The deadlines for replacing antifreeze depend on the recommendations of the manufacturer and features of operation vehicle. Most experts and car owners advises to replace the coolant every 45,000 mileage kilometers. Frontal replacement It is performed in the presence of the following factors:

• appearance in the upper part of the expansion tank of foreign mass;
• frequent activation of the cooling system;
• the presence in the dirt solution, its muddy color;
• the appearance in the expansion tank of precipitate at negative temperatures;
• water got into antifreeze.

Mikhail, good afternoon! As far as I understand, the original antifreeze is two types of LLC (red) and Super LLC (pink).
1. I would like to know the changeance of the replacement of both liquids.
2. What can be addressed in pink antifreeze (concentrate or finished solution)?
3. If I understand that the red antifreeze on an ethylene glycol basis, and pink - on carboxylate (judging by the increased period of replacement relative to red)
4. CRWN 99 auto, LLC sticker, which antifreeze will advise to use with a complete replacement?

Car Toyota Camry 12.2003. It drew attention that the fluid is not enough in the expansion tank. For the topping, the antifreeze of Toyota Long Life Coolant (Concentrated Red) was bought, diluted and felt 200-300. Then (unfortunately, then he read the manual carefully, and the antifreeze of Toyota Super Long Life Coolant is specified.
Questions: How critical is such mixing for the engine (and it will be necessary to reduce the antifreeze replacement interval), and how often antifreeze changes in Russian conditions (according to Manual 160 thousand km, in this conference once slipped, which is 40 thousand) .

Dear Dmitry! Camry meets and super (he pink) and the usual "Long Live" (red) antifreeze. Super is not convenient because it is not only impossible to top up other antifreeze, but also water. When mixed with other antifreeges, pink antifreeze can curl with all the ensuing consequences. If you have not happened, or it was chosen red, it is chemically compatible even with blue, or the additive was very small or the contents of the expansion tank was not mixed with the rest of the cooling system. In any case, Luha replace antifreeze and not risk. In addition, attention should be paid to the reason for lowering the level. Unfortunately on vehicles with plastic parts, their destruction often occurs with the subsequent leakage of antifreeze. Camry is, more often, the lower radiator tank. It is changed under warranty along with antifreeze.
Good luck, Mikhail.

Dear Dmitry! The initiative of such an inspection belongs to Toyota Motor. There is a suspicion that the fastening bolt of the slotted connection is incorrect, past the liks. From those machines that we checked, the defect was not confirmed and the replacement was not required. You can spend this operation from any official dealer, we at least "other people" take cars.
Good luck, Mikhail.

toyet recommends only one type of fluid:
coolant concentrate with increased replacement time:
- 08889-80015 1 liter
- 08889-80014 5 liter
- 08889-80017 60 liters
and the red it or pink depends only on the amount of water of which you dilute when replacing. In our strip, rather red. With water 50 to 50, if the previous owner in order to compensate for leakage with water did not spread it until it is impossible.
buy 3.5 liters of concentrate, the rest of the water. And all will be well. Turn into the system more glasses of dispersion per year accounts for malfunction. Look for the cause.

It turned out the officials that.
The original antifreeze of Toyota is red and pink. The one is called Long Life Coolt, and which is a pink called Super Long Life Coolant. "Super is not convenient because it is not only impossible to top up other antifreeze, but also water. When mixed with other antifreeges, pink antifreeze can curl with all the ensuing consequences." (c) Pink antifreeze is poured in the auto recent years. The period of replacement of pink (super) is about 160 t.km., I do not know the replacement time. And it is not clear how to distinguish red from pink. I suspect that the one that is pink on a carboxylate basis (judging by the deadline for the replacement), as liquida moth. In general, some kind of confusion :)

In short, it became somehow boring, you don't need to do anything in the car ... just plunge non-freeze ... I decided to add antifreeze, and then in the tank somehow to the area of \u200b\u200bthe minimum. Bought a red - Toyota Long Life Coolant. In the manual, Toyota Super Long Life Coolant is registered, but I read it later. Used that antifreeze in colors can be mixed, did not really worry, but I threw the question of the forum Nika-Motors. Good people said - they are not mixed, and categorically - urgently change. I looked into the tank - and there the antifreeze curled, the sediment fell and everything. Outcome - 2000 rubles for replacing antifreeze. And he changed to Kuntsevo - they could not believe in any way, forced to change forced the violence. Moor - do not plot anything, dealers are not everyone, but what is flooded - no one knows there. By 40 thousand. Change antifreeze according to anyone on the usual red.

Nevertheless, antifreeze curled, in the post it was written that first everything was fine .. Mikhail was right :) And you can describe in more detail? Or is it still difficult to determine?
You write "for 40 thousand. Change antifreeze according to anyone on the usual red." I did not understand, the officials change any antphine on red, i.e. On the one that is not folded? Do the full replacement with washing? By the way, now they are sold and the other ...
Thank you. Regards, Alexey.

At first I did not notice, and I don't see much in the tank, but after I received an answer from Nick Motors, I looked at the addiction, i.e. With a flashlight. It was unpleasant surprised.
The color of pink - I would call it more purple, how he was in the tuning table of the Soviet color TV. From red, even diluted in half - it differs straight, but they must be installed next to the transparent dishes. There was no Supper in Bitz and Kuntsevo, they said that he was only at the factory, on sale or there was no service. I changed antifreeze in Kuntsevo, they said that they change antifreeze on all machines to the usual red, Toyota Long Life Coolt. The fact that antifreeze is not mixed - they could not believe long, tried to dissuade from replacement. An interesting question (ask him to yourself, the happy owners of new cars) - And if the official tops the antifreeze, then someone draws attention, which one?
