Alphard2024 Posted November 8 Share Posted November 8 Hi I have heard there can be an issue with buying a JDM vehicle regarding the antifreeze needing to be changed. Apparently it doesn't meet the specification required for our road/weather conditions & needs to be changed. Has anyone else heard about this?

As Japanese winters tend to be colder that UK ones, especially in the southern UK, I would expect Japanese antifreeze to be more than capable of coping with UK winters. However, of course, you will not know whether, and/or by how much, the antifreeze has been diluted. Any decent garage should be able to measure your coolant mixture and assess its suitability / effectivity for an UK winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
