So about 8 months ago I went to autozone to get some coolant. I noticed my reservoir was missing coolant...but slowly.
I also noticed distilled water leaking from the engine. I couldn't source it till today...when I saw that my water pump was leaking!
Anyway, the coolant was GM Dex-Cool and I drive a Jeep. Didn't notice that till after I poured it. However on the back it says it meets the standards and specifications for the Chrysler Coolant so I'm all good. I guess there is a difference between "Dex-Cool" and "Dex-Cool Approved" as that is what my tub says.
Questions is, is if it meets the standards and specs for my Chrysler Coolant why do the Jeep guys on the other forums swear it is the most horrible thing I could do when my engine runs fine and the coolant meets the specs.
I'll be replacing my pump in the next month or so. My water pump lasted for about 90,000 miles so it's time for a new one anyway.
