So guys after i changed my radiator the local mechanic filled up my car with a coolant that is different from what local dealership here in my area(greece) recomends (paraflu g11 blue)
So the question is, will the different coolant cause any malfunction in my cars engine?
The coolant is Fuchs maintain fricofin with these specs:
ASTM D 3306

ASTM D 4985
AFNOR NF R 15-601
BS 6580:1982

BUNDESWEHR TL 6805-0038/01

SAE J1034

My car is Bravo multijet 1.6 120
Thanks
 
My user manual recomends Paraflu UP with FIAT 9.55523 spec, which is pink. Blue antifreeze is an older type used in first Bravo, I think.
It should not cause any damage, but it has shorter lifespan - only 3 years (pink has 5) and maybe worse protection parameters
