The original Ford / Lincoln / Jaguar coolant is Zerex G-05, I keep it on hand, and it's all I buy. My local Advance Auto Parts has it, Wal Mart might..

I wouldn't use anything but, but you can buy it from the parts store for 1/2 the price of what the Jag dealer wants (because it wont come in a white bottle with a jaguar paper label on it lol).

BTW, this is the same stuff that Mercedes and BMW use. Only thing that changes is the label LOL, Hence I use it in all my vehicles.

Take care,

Either one doesn't mix well with green coolant if someone contaminated the car with that.
