MG ZR ZS ZT Technical - Antifreeze

Hi,
I need to top up the antifreeze header tank on my 04 ZS180 by a small amount.
Does anyone know if there is a particular antifreeze I should buy to be compatible with what the factory filled the cooling system with originally?

Charlie.

Your car would have been filled with OAT at the factory. You should not mix OAT with the ethylene alcohol type antifreeze.

Thanks Ralph,
That's exactly what I wanted to know.

Cheers Charlie.

Definitely ONLY use the OAT antifreeze - Unipart dealer available - or old MG/Rover dealers still have some. Use a 50/50 mixture with water
