I noticed that the coolant level for the battery in my roadster was low. Apart from checking whether there is a leak in the system, I need to top off the system in the mean time. I looked in the Owner's Manual and found that Havoline Extended Life antifreeze Coolant-PG (XLC-PG) is recommended. In looking around at stores and online I was unable to locate this product. There was mention in Lotus forums that XLC-PG is equivalent to DEX-Cool, but DEX-Cool is normally orange colored coolant and my roadster's coolant is definitely yellow. What are you using for coolant - is there a reason the manual calls out XLC-PG specifically?
Sorry if this has been previously posted, I did some searching and didn't find anything.

Hello, new to the forum, quick coolant question.
Is this NAPA coolant OK to use in the 2008 roadster? This product looks like propylene glycol instead of ethylene glycol - I'm guessing that is what the "PG" in XLC-PG means.
