Best Coolant for 2006 SE???
What coolant do you guys recommend for a 2006 SE?

Is there one that's better then the other or can I just use any kind?

make sure it's the green one! I use the one that is "universal," it can be mixed with red/green...and it's already pre-mixed

So I called the Nissan shop to ask them what they recommend and they said for that car you can use any standard one. Nothing special as long as it's coolant you're good to go.
