If you are unsure, the auto parts store have antifreeze that mixes with all kinds and brands of antifreeze and it is same price, If you know the color of the coolant that is in it now then use same at a 50/50 mix (antifreeze/water)

    Hi, I would use Prestone it is the best. Mix it 50/50 as Craig says. The coolant should be a light green color. Hope that helps.

Just go down to your local auto parts store and buy your basic antifreeze -- you can buy a premixed 50/50,, but depending on where you live and the temperatures,, I would suggest buying 100% antifreeze and adding water to it,, if you look on the back of the antifreeze bottle there will be a chart to determine the correct ratio mix for your areas temperature.

SOURCE: what kind of coolant does a pontiac grand am 2003

I found out the hard way -this is soooo important. It is imperative that you use the orange dexcool. it is designed to withstand certain temperature. If not used properly - it could start a domino effect thats very costly. T.M.I One time i let my boyfriend check my oil- simple enough right? like most people do, the water level was checked as well. he filled reserve w/ plain water all the way to the top ( instead of where coolant level line is) The results were over heating (plus found out later after melted heads) that the threads to reserve cap were stripped. which is what lead to lake of pressure in coolant line.

How to put anti freeze in 1999 Pontiac Grandam

The coolant goes into the coolant recovery tank near the radiator, it doesn't go directly into the radiator unless you have drained the radiator for some reason.

sounds to me like the heater core is leaking and coolant is running out of the a/c drain .
