Default Pentosin Antifreeze

Just a General question, The Jaguar dealer is quite a commute from my house and i'm always at work during the week so I was forced to purchased Antifreeze/ Coolant online.

I saw Genuine Jaguar Antifreeze for sale on Carid, Once i received the package i noticed it is Pentofrost SF.

The coolant is pink in color, is it safe to mix with the Jaguar OEM coolant or should i perform a flush ?

2012 Jaguar XFR

Your owners manual contains the spec for the coolant. Make sure the newly purchased stuff is the same spec.

Any car parts store sells coolant of the correct spec, no need to buy it online.

The correct coolant (available from many brands) will be orange, not pink and the jug will have an orange cap..

Not true in all cases, there are many exceptions. The specification is the ONLY way of ensuring compatibility.
