FLUIDS
Brake Fluid
Use only AP New Premium Super DOT 4 brake fluid or Castrol Universal DOT 4 brake/clutch fluid. DO NOT use any other type of fluid.
Anti-Freeze Solutions
The overall anti-freeze concentration should not fall, by volume, below 50% to ensure that the anti-corrosion properties of the coolant are maintained. Anti-freeze concentrations greater than 60% are not recommended as cooling efficiency will be impaired.
Conventional ethylene glycol anti-freeze Vehicles using conventional anti-freeze are identified by not having a label attached around the expansion tank filler neck or a black filler neck ring label.
Early vehicles up to VIN No: RD512771 use UNIPART Superplus 3 Anti-freeze and Summer Coolant to protect the cooling system. The coolant is yellow/green in colour.
CAUTION: No other ’universal’ or Organic Acid Technology (OAT) anti-freeze should be used with UNIPART Superplus 3 Anti-freeze and Summer Coolant.
If UNIPART Superplus 3 Anti-freeze and Summer Coolant is not available, use an ethylene glycol based anti-freeze containing no methanol with non-phosphate corrosion inhibitors which meet specifications BS6580 and BS5117 suitable for use in mixed metal engines. To ensure the protection of the cooling system against corrosion, these anti-freezes must be renewed every 12 months.
Vehicles from VIN No: RD512772 to Vin No: RD520012 use UNIPART AFC Longlife Anti-freeze and Summer Coolant to protect the cooling system. The coolant is blue in colour.
CAUTION: No other ’universal’ or Organic Acid Technology (OAT) anti-freeze should be used with UNIPART AFC Longlife Anti-freeze and Summer Coolant.
If UNIPART AFC Longlife Anti-freeze and Summer Coolant is not available, use an ethylene glycol based anti-freeze containing no methanol with non-phosphate corrosion inhibitors which meet specifications BS6580 and BS5117 suitable for use in mixed metal engines. To ensure the protection of the cooling system against corrosion, these anti-freezes must be renewed every 12 months.
