What engine coolant to do a flush?

Keep in mind FL-22 is a 55/45 premix, not 50/50.

No, it's not. Perhaps OEM but not this stuff.


It's a bit pricy, to say the least. Back in 10/2019 I paid $35 for that same jug.

Wait, almost $60 and only 5 year life? That stuff after mixing will be about $30 so not too much less than the $40 I paid for the Mazda fl22 10 year coolant. Why would anybody not just use the zerex Asian green for $18 ?

I am talking about FL22 OEM.

Zerex Asian Green is not a bad route to go at all for the price. The only reason I went OEM is because I wanted to stick with OEM and drain and fill twice with 2 gallons. The price wasn’t too much more at the link I shared earlier.
 
Been a while since I been on here. Our 2014 is still purring along. Figured it's time to do a coolant flush. We're at 8 years, and about 120,000 kms.
So do I need anything special for coolant??
One store sells ONE jug, "good for all makes and models".
The next store has 10 different colored jugs, specific for chev, toyota, mazda, etc.
Haven't done this for quite a few years so didn't know they make everything so complicated. Does it really make a difference?? Should I use the jug that reads specific for Mazda??
thanks

Check your manual. In the US we have a 10 year/120k MILES change interval, that's about 195k km. Check Amazon for price. I've always used FL-22.
