You didn't read the link https://mbwholesaleparts.com/StarTuned/pdfs/AntiFreeDec04.pdf did you?

It's a matter of the Engineers designing the car to match the HOAT anti-freeze, as much as the anti-freeze matching the car.

It'll run just fine with other anti-freeze formulations, but it'll last longer with the right stuff.

You'll live a long time on a diet of Big Macs.
