Hello all-
MY Sol is a 2006 NA with 3800 miles. I'm guessing the Dexcool hasn't been changed. I spoke with a retired GM mechanic who said to change out the "Mississippi mud" to a regular green antifreeze. After doing a search, some here said to replace the Dexcool with new Dexcool. Others said to switch to green/distilled water. Apparently, the Dexcool ,if not thoroughly flushed ,can create the "mud" mentioned earlier. Just wondering what the consensus is. I'm getting her out of hibernation in a few weeks. I've also scheduled for the pinion /flange/etc and vent repair.
Can't wait to see how she handles/sounds with the Probeam,Backbone , Venom brace, new Hankooks and Solo exhaust!
This forum is the best! Glad to see new generation Sol/Sky owners signing on...
Thanks in advance!
John
