Second time I’m buying it (the first was for a tractor). Supplement in a 2011 Kia Picanto. In both cases I didn’t notice anything different from the other cheaper antifreezes.

The stations do not have blue in this quality. I always use what the manufacturer recommends and never top up with another color.

The good thing is that the packaging describes the type and use (G12, Ready to use) because nowadays the color no longer indicates the type but rather the range of temperature protection.

I have been using it for years and it is very effective, it did not cause me any problems. I recommend it compared to what gas stations sell.

Well... It's been in the car for about 2 years.. since the replacement, I noticed a difference in the temperature functioning compared to the old one that was in there for 5+ years. After 5 months, I had to change the bulb because it was leaking (no relation to the product before) and when I took it out, I saw that it had discolored quite a bit. I put the same one back in, and besides the discoloration, I haven't noticed any dirt or rust or high temperatures. I generally consider Valeo products to be reliable, but I can't know for sure how good this one is, it's working though.

Maybe it's not what we want to believe we bought.
After 1 month of use, it became almost transparent and lost its color. I can't say that I have seen a low temperature in the car. The seller from another store laughed when I showed it to him... It's not G12, he told me for sure, maybe G11 colored. I bought a concentrated one, more economical than this in terms of quantity and quality.

Excellent product, my refrigerator and car radiators are completely clean with changes every 2.5 - 3 years as well as the gas cylinder which remains clean in its water. Also, an excellent price. One strange thing I notice is that it discolors after a few months of use and tends towards colorless. This initially worried me that it was losing its properties, but time has shown that this is not the case.

update 16/1/2023
The product in its new packaging has improved and no longer discolors. I recently preemptively replaced the water pump at 310,000 km and 16 years, and the metallic blades as well as the engine metals where the pump nests were in a condition as if they had just come out of the factory. Therefore, I confirmed that the product is flawless.

Surname and affordable coolant. It was recommended to me and is used by a specialized refrigeration technician for water/ radiator of cars. No complaints so far, the heating works perfectly and I have no issues with the car's temperature. I will update the evaluation over time, if necessary, with positive or negative comments.

Very good features, from -25*C to +120*C. I used it for 18 years in 2 cars, had no problems and the cooling system remained spotless. And the price is very reasonable.
Two years ago, I used a so-called good -brand name- that was recommended to me and the system filled with rust. Coincidence?
Be careful with the color, usually red is for newer cars and especially for aluminum engines.
