friends are getting cold slowly
I am thinking of changing the antifreeze of the vehicle, but there is a red antifreeze in it. Is it different from the blue one?

I recommend you to use whatever color it contains. If the cooling water alone is not very clean, I think it is useful to change the cooling water and clean the inside of the engine.

Pink antifreeze (B12) carries heat better than green antifreezes. Since it does not contain any other phosphate, it does not corrode the new generation aluminum engine covers with corrosion, and when there is a slight leak in the most beautiful system, it contacts with the air and dries at that point and enables it to be detected visually.
Make sure that the antifreeze / water ratio is min 30% - max 50%

I understood that if we put all antifreeze, I think it will not hurt

No, they won't all be antifreeze. antifreeze rate can be max 50%.
When antifreeze is mixed with water, the necessary chemical compound is produced.

[QUOTE = qEccE] thanks guys, where can we completely drain the water in this vehicle, do you have any information, do you have plugs etc. [/ QUOTE]

The easiest way is to remove the hose from the bottom of the radiator. Before this process, do not forget to open the cabin (expansion box) cover you control the water level and open the heaters. Then the water will come out and the hose will be removed from where you removed it. Then you will fasten the hose and fill the new mixture from above. The heater will open for a while and then you will see again whether the expansion level has decreased or not. If it does, you will add it again.

In fact, we have a different anti-freeze that prevents the water circulating in the chiller units to freeze, and it prevents the rust-free radiator from rusting much longer than the normal anti-freeze.

I think the red antifreeze is one of the most acceptable in the market
I advise
has a mixed brand, a little expensive but worth it
