New GM vehicles come with a (claimed) 100k/5yr coolant they call 'Dex-Cool'; I've just discovered Prestone "Extended Life - 5/100" coolant that notes on the bottle that it is Dex-Cool compatable, & silicate and phosphate free. (~ $8/gal @ Pep Boys). It's a vile, bile yellow color, same as the GM stuff, for what it's worth. Any comments pro / con from the truely knowledgeable out there ref using this stuff & maybe going 2-3 years between coolant changes? Austin
