OAT What does it mean
Finally getting around to doing a coolant change and over here in Spain OAT means nothing to any motor factor I've visited.Is it just the organic variety of coolant,or will any decent quality coolant do?

It stands for Organic Acid Technology, basically means the coolant you put in wont dissolve your engine from the inside out like older coolants could have (though I have never personally come across a problem caused by coolant damage myself).

OAT only or a coolant water mix?

Usually buy it as a concentrate so would be mixed with water.

Here they just sell a 5 litre container of organic coolant,doesn't mention percentages of distilled water to add.As I'm in Spain near the coast it's only the coolant properties that interest me.
