A SAE certified mechanic recently recommended that I drain/flush my coolant system and install anti-freeze that's made for Japanese cars, the reason being that those are formulated to be compatible with aluminum blocks and cylinder heads. Traditional American anti-freeze coolant blends tend to eat away at aluminum over time.
