Read your owner's manual -

3. Only add a mixture of antifreeze and water in
equal parts, and do not exceed the “MAX”
mark.
Antifreeze in coolant:
50% gives protection down to –31°F/–35°C
60% gives protection down to –58°F/–50°C

Has anyone been able to find the porsche green coolant? Suncoast parts says you can mix the new red coolant and older green coolant but I'd rather find the green stuff...

I've been driving 996/997's since 2004 and it's always been "pink" - never seen any green.
