Hello, I am getting all the lube specs. for my car and would like to know what type of anti-freeze is needed for this engine and in what strength for the UK?

Will it be ok on regular stuff or does it need OEM stuff like the PD engined Volkswagens?

Is there anything to watch out for as regards air locks? My old Honda Accord was great because it had a bleed valve right at the top of the coolant system.

Lastly, what is the capacity of this system? I will be using demineralised water with the mixture when refilling.

Thanks.

Mike.
 
IIRC I used 2-3 bottles of MB coolant in mine.

No issues with airlocks, just keep squeezing the radiator pipes and the air will bubble out of the reservoir as the engine is running.
 
Zerex G-05 or MB coolant. Do not use the green stuff.
