Porsche approved coolant.....

After performing AT LEAST 4 different searches & not finding ANYTHING (I could be an idiot & I am sure somebody will prove it, lol) I can find nothing on what type of coolant to put in my 996.

TIA,

- Cam

Porsche coolant, available from your dealer.

part number: 000 043 301 05

There is no specified change date. Probably if the water pump leaks would be the only time coolant would be needed.

THanks,

I think I need to add some (probably just add some distilled water) to top it off.
My temp light flashes about every third time I start up my car.

If I stop, turn off the motor & then restart it, light is off.

Yes, I knew it was available from the site, but It WAS needed
"right now".

I was wondering if any "off the shelf" cooolant was "approved".


Thanks,

Presumably this means there is no "off the shelf" approved
coolant......
