My manuals don't say for sure what coolant that CC uses in the C13.
It appears that they use Fleetguard ES Compleat. That is what Beaudry sold me to top off the coolant. Also the maintenance interval in the chassis manual matches the Fleetguard ES maintenance interval.
However, Fleetguard says to recharge the coolant with ES Extender once per year and CC seems to say replace the coolant. Anyone know what the real answer is?

Bob (and for other CAT owners that might be interested)
CAT ELC is CAT's extended life coolant that stipulates a coolant life of 600,000 miles or 6 years with an extender added at half-life.
Sounds like a better solution then the Fleetguard product when having to change out the coolant fluid.

Yea, I am thinking about switching. It might be easier in the long run.
