I wanted to know which is the best coolant to be used in my car. With water mixed or without and also provide the basic steps ijnvolved in addition of the coolant.

Any safety precautions to be used. Differnet coolant makers have their own steps of doing it, so it gets confusing.

Thanks,

Pretty much any 'green' coolant will be fine. Most coolant you find at stores are universal nowadays anyways. Just don't use dex-cool, pink or blue coolant.

You can purchase pre-mix and add it to your overflow tank until it reaches the max line.
