The color of MINI Long-Term Antifreeze/Coolant is blue; however, the colors of other locally available long and short-term coolants vary. These colors include green, orange, pink, red or yellow. Mixing MINI Long-Term Antifreeze/Coolant with these different color and types of antifreeze/coolants can result in a discolored solution in the cooling system.
MINI Long-Term Antifreeze/coolant (82 14 0 031 133) is a Hybrid OAT (HOAT) solution, since it also has added silicates to provide quick-acting protection for aluminum surfaces.
MINI Long-Term Antifreeze/Coolant can be used for all model years; however, its use does not eliminate or supercede a stated change interval. Always maintain the antifreeze/coolant in accordance with the cooling system maintenance requirements outlined in the corresponding vehicle's Service and Warranty Information Booklet.
