I need to get some green AF to match what's in my girlfriend's car (Not supposed to mix them, and all that!)

However, I can't tell from the outside of the container what brand is what colour.

I know that Prestone is yellow, and I think that the special Audi stuff is blue, and the GM Dexcool or whatever is orange.

But I can't remember green...

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

The yellow will mix w/ orange and green, so it's safe (supposedly). Can't mix it with newer models that use G12 though!

Some private labeled stuff is green, like walmarts brand stuff.

Looks like what I have as 'yellow' looks more like green when you pour it (Or the same kind of light green that was already in, anyway).

And as you indicated, it said on the jug 'Mixes with any colour'. I guess I shold read what I buy?

Thanks for the tip!

I was leaving to go to a closing for a client and I start up Petunia and the light was flashing. WTF? I get out, check the reservoir. Bone dry. Get on my hands and kees in the parking garage (in a suit mind you). Men were walking by, "Do you need help Miss?" "No thanks, I'm cool." I still don't know where my leak was...but she's holding tightly now. Knock on wood...

Well in the USA the prestone jug is yellow but the liquid inside is green - at least last time I looked.
The anti-freeze situation has gotton complex. Some are labelled and priced to say 'that they work will all other antifreezes'.
I'm partially color blind - maybe the prestone is a yellowish green. I bet etholyene glycol is really clear.
