Operating Temperature of Perdana V6

[Rex551]

Dear Sifous and Wheel Guru's..

I am going to service my Perdana V6 2.0 (A) Radiator. Anybody whose got an idea of how high the operating temperature in the radiator is, do update here.

Also,
What's the most suitable coolant for Perdana Radiators. This is because I've noticed that the heat these engines generate are quite high.

Others with Radiator servicing experiences are also most welcomed to join in on this thread.

So start typing for my sake...



Thanks

ok la bro...i will type for u hehe....
operating temperature - should be not more than half. if more than half, youre in big trouble....before this i was using ori 6a12tt radiator, the temp always shows half, no matter rain or no rain, night or day. now im using RVR radiator, its slightly bigger, at night or cold days, the temp will fall to 1/4.

i suggest u use nissan radiator fluid, last time i used toyota, not very good.
1 btl rm45-50 use 50/50

Thanks Danz,
I'll take note of the Nissan coolant. But what about the "Radiator Relief" ?.

Nobody used it before ahh ?...

[Rex551]

Guys,
Thanks for the feedback. Will post updates when I'm sending my car for the service. I think I'll stick to a good coolant due to my budget. Hehahehe

Danz,
The "Radiator Relief" seems to be some kind of substance you add into your radiator along with your coolant and water. I myself came to know about it here only. That's why I had asked feedback from those whom have used it. It's from Dei.

RVR radiator could fit pv6 na, but u need to fabricate a bracket to fit the fans..
even v6tt fans are slightly smaller to fit RVR radiator...
