RE: prestone antifreeze

If they are flushing the Dex-Cool out due to silica, then they are dead wrong. The Dex-Cool formulas are the silica free formulas. Regular "green" ethelyne glycol coolant uses a ton of silica.

I stand corrected then.

When I was working for GM, they claimed it was silica and phosphate free. Who knew?
