what type of coolant do i use/look for at the local parts store for my 02 r/t, i looked in the manual but it didnt specify anything, can i use anythin or is it somethin special, thanks alot.

02's use the mopar - 5066386AA fluid...the 5 year fluid....
But keep in mind, supposivley it is NOT compatable with the GM dexcool but MIGHT be with the Gold bottled ZEREX G05 formula available at any NAPA store

i completely cleaned mine out and out the prestone in there.

the zerex g05 is compatible. as is a new havoline coolant. i recently started seeing adds for it in car mags. you can also use a universal coolant.

DO NOT USE DEXCOOL. Dexcool is an OAT coolant, organic additives. The mopar 5 year is a HOAT, hybrid organic additives. the mopar stuff is better. apparantly dexcool does not like air so the system has to be damn near sealed or else you get crud galore, at least that is what i have read.

i dont know how the universal coolants meet so many specs, but somehow they do. i am currently using it in my fiances beetle that is only supposed to have VW G-12 coolant. but there is no way in hell im paying $18+ per gallon of coolant.

supertech universal has done just fine.

when it comes time to do the neon i will probably use the zerex or havoline stuff. the zerex is available at most autozones.

Green out -> Yellow long life in.

Done and done.
