The issue with coolant types is that some are not compatible with others and will cause goo to form in the cooling system if mixed together.

If you are going to change coolant type, be sure to fully flush the system with distilled water first

Just because it is used in a V12 merc, does not mean it is proper for a Porsche M96. It may be fine and it may be disastrous
