DESCRIPTION

Mazda Motor Corporation (MC) does not recommend the use of reconditioned antifreeze. Please use ethylene glycol base coolant for Mazda's aluminum engines.

Although it is available on the market, reconditioned antifreeze might contain silicon particles, which could abrade the water pump seal, or it might contain other chemicals, alcohol or methanol, that may erode metal parts.

Since MC does not advocate the use of reconditioned antifreeze, any problems caused by its use cannot be covered by the warranty.
