Unfortunatly, I worked part-time for a couple here in Central California that were notorious for ripping off the customer....

I agree, I'll never bring my car in for work unless it is a warranty covered item.

And even then I'll check to make sure it was done correctly!


In my hometown, I can get Zerex at pretty much every auto store. NAPA and even the gas stations carry it

I did a little web research on this last year, and from what I could tell Sierra was the only safe green coolant to use. I'm sorry, but i can't remember the specific reason. Maybe someone else knows.

In our Cummins gensets we use a Zerex branded green coolant supplied by Cummins. Color is not a good indication of quality it is only a dye. Cheers Dan

Once in a while NAPA sells it but most of the time we have to go to this one place called "Import Parts Specialists" to get Zerex. Everybody else sells green stuff and "global" mix-with-anything stuff.
