I've used Comma G48 in all the Volvos I've had for donkeys years. It always used to be the recommended coolant and still has the Volvo approval, although the G64 appears to be the new recommendation.

Preston coolant is designed for all types of vehicles. The company has its own online catalog, where we can of course find a coolant for our Volvo model:

https://prestone.com/

At 240,000 km I replaced the timing gear and just forgot to change the coolant. I think the fluid can be replaced every those 100,000 - 200,000 km.

Thank you very much for your answers
