Hi

Sorry for the stupid question... I have a 1996 Volvo 440 1.8i

My coolant needs topping up. I went to Halfords and they suggested Blue coolant as this is generally for older cars. However, the coolant cap says it must be Volvo coolant.

Will this Halfords coolant be ok?

Thanks

I have always just used a generic antifreeze and summer coolant with no ill effects so I reckon it should be ok.
