Coolant, how much?

[santoz]

I know the system takes 7l in total but how much of this is coolant and how much is de-ionised water?

I've got 2l of Motaquip Premium Red OAT Renault D coolant and a 5l drum of de-ionised water.

Also got 2.5l of Bluecol antifreeze which is ethylene glycol, same chemical makeup but i take it you can't mix the two?

got the renault workshop manual and all the clio books but none are of any help

7L in total 50/50 mix water/coolant

you can get the reno type d coolant in GSF on boucher road for a few quid cheaper than the stealers. think i got 5l for 19 quid, reno wanted 23-24. think they do the 1l bottle as well for around 6 quid
