I'm reading past threads and it seems a lot of GS owners in the UK use green and not orange antifreeze.

My understanding is that the orange is better suited to modern engines, Inc aluminium blocks, and would be better suited for the GS.

I'm hoping to do a full flush soon, and wondering which is the right product.

Operating temperatures here in Qld Australia much warmer than UK as well...

Thoughts anyone?

I'm not near the car to know! But it would be given a complete flush and change of hoses etc. So I'd imagine as long as it's flushed, the current content doesn't matter?

It’s been discussed a few times. The book says Paraflu 11, which is now made by Petronas. If you want to change (or aren’t sure what’s in there) flush it all out.
