Hey fellas,

Thank You for the quick response!

I figured I would ask anyway, rather not do it and suffer problems later down the road.

Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.

You can't mix the two, but you can drain and flush the pink out and switch to green if you wanted to.

Be ready to shell out the cash for the OEM Toyota Antifreeze.....$24/gallon here at the local dealership.
Make sure you mix it with distilled water and not the crap water out of your tap.
