Pentosin coolant v. Porsche coolant

[Samson]

I found about three that actually contained information about coolant, and the information in those is pretty much limited to people thinking that Porsche coolant is rebranded Pentosin, but nothing more.

Did you find something different, or are you just being difficult out of boredom?

A couple that stated they had used it, others that said they knew of someone that used it……………”search” really is your friend…….

it doesnt hurt just to answer his question either... some people (like myself) wouldnt mind knowing and when i see this thread and read through to find out someone just wanted to be a troll


على كل حال
"anyways"

according to Jmatta

"My Porsche shop uses Pentosin, which is Porsche approved and less than the stuff the dealer sells."


and blue2000s

" use Pentosin Lifetime myself, but they're all the same if they're on that list."

I was quoted in one of the posts, but I refilled my car with OEM stuff when I changed to the LN low temp t-stat. Even though my shop uses Pentosin, I just wanted the OEM stuff as the difference in price was negligible.

So I haven't helped your cause...

They also swear by Royal Purple, but that will cause a whole other uproar.

I recently replaced my coolant (Peak extended life) and the procedure for burping the air was a little scary. It took a long time to purge the air and things got a little too hot for my comfort zone...220+ but all ended well. This is definitely not like flushing the Toyota. Follow the instructions carefully.
