Take your trusty Porsche Eng's advice when he says you should use, and only use, Porsche approved fluids my friend. (No-No Wallmart weekly specials allowed loll)

Besides... all of the extra profits they make while robbing you with their great TM does in fact back right into R&D. Meaning better cars for our next generations (or silly EV cars, whatever). Support the Brand!!!

Well if they sold in the USA they had to follow the SAE standard. J814: Engine Coolants - SAE International

Al, they are all corrosion resistant: Aluminum VS. Copper-Brass Radiator: Corrosion Susceptibility
Headgaskets usually steel ring is touching coolant.
Hoses follow a standard. For example a different hose J30R6 for fuel.
Tanks, plastic most likely ABS.
Fittings if they are not steel or cast allow or ABS

Walmart is just a retailer, you could by the same thing at CaCanTire if you want.

All that the OP needs to know is that both fluids are not compatible. They will all provide the protection needed at different costs.

Its all about good-feeding-anything to your car really!

Personally if there would be anything more expansive than the Porsche Pink, I'd just buy the more expansive stuff... given its on the list of approved by P.

Just feels right LOL

Coolant flush, feel fresh; the rest is to wear your newest pair of sport shoes, and go for a proud roadster ride somewhere downtown... where everybody can't see you new shoes, and over-priced coolant.

It just alllllll feels right. Consistent with the brand, you see

(ps: leaving the blah blah blah tech behind!)
