Subject:DexCool in Canada (was Coolant Question)
From:Keith Adams

Can anyone point me to where I can get DexCool in Canada?  I've heard that GM
uses DexCool as it's OE coolant.  Anyone have prices?  Is DexCool and the VW
Autobahn stuff the only choices we really have?  Is the VW stuff
super-expensive?

Annoyed, because the "reputable" local shop who did the heads for the PO last
year put in green coolant,
