    Quick question before I do a coolant change, is this the same as Zerex Asian?
    Anyone use it yet?
    Found it at Walmart.

    I saw a thread on this on bobistheoilguy, from those guys that know way too damn much about chemicals.

    The quick summary of two pages of post for this coolant was this: SLLC from Toyota has two essential chemicals in it that make it last so long. This coolant (the Zerex) has one of them. That being said, most people who use it have good luck with it. It's a hell of a lot better than just some random coolant

    $5 a quart. Think it's the same. I'll call Valvoline. Zerex Asian in the past has been fine.

    Just got off the phone with Valvoline they said it's the exact same formulation as Zerex Asian just that that label is exclusive to Walmart.

    Plus $5 cheaper. Winning!
