It's hardly 'semantics' to want to use the correct antifreeze/corrosion inhibitor for your vehicle! With all due respect, if you think it's merely semantics then your advice should be disregarded.

Just because I do happen to be familiar with many of the common combinations used for vehicle coolant, it doesn't mean I actually know which ones are needed for my Volvo... obviously I already looked in the owners manual (which merely recommends the use of 'Volvo coolant').

I stand by my assertion that coolant colour is NOT a reliable indicator of suitability or compatibility.

I will seek advice elsewhere.
