Thanks for the info!
Well let me see if I can help. If you don't know what coolant you have then I recommend getting a sample from your tank, turkey baster will work. put in clear jar and look at color. Pink is Porsche factory color, Clear is Euro formula (Zerex G-05 ). Red is Japan long life and green is standard Prestone coolant. There are other brands but this is basic and should keep you out of trouble.
