They told me that Nissan specifically says that the altima is suppose to come with the non-extended antifreeze (this may be a ploy for them to make more money off easy coolant flushes, i'm not sure). So I called up the shop and asked them if they made a mistake.they told me no.and that their system has the antifreeze labeled in the system incorrectly. After checking the antifreeze when I got home, I noticed that I had the non-extended life green antifreeze. When I got the 30k service, my bill said on it that they put in extended life antifreeze. I went over this with a few Nissan shops. Just use regular prestone or Zerex antifreeze and you will be fine.
If you mix longlife and regular, it is not recomended, but the only thing that will usually happen is you coolant life is redueced to the regular coolant. OUR cars use regular antifreeze, nothing special. ANyways, these are the 4 kinds and manufactures use different dye's in them so you think you have to buy Their own antifreeze. This is the basic coolant, usually green. Then there is Standard Ethylene Gycol that has silicates in it. Then there is Hybrid Organic Acid Technology, which is similiar but has SOME silicates in it.
Organic Acid Technology, which is silicate free and long life, for such models as GM's dex-cool, toyotas, VW, vovlo,etc. Hasnt your deal tried to get you to pay 400 dollars for the 30k service, which includes coolant flush.
