Hi, I've been using Coma Xstream G48 Antifreeze and coolant in my Jimny 2007 and now I'm trying to source more in the Poole/Dorset area, any supplier recommendations most welcome. Also any advice re the dilution required as its available as a concentrate. Many thanks, got to keep this old trusty 4x4 going for a few more years.

My preference is to use a concentrate - read the directions on the container for the acceptable dilution ratios, typically it's a 50:50 mix
There's no block drain on most Suzukis, so after flushing the cooling system there is an unknown volume of whatever was used to flush the system trapped in the block, assuming this is de-ionized water, using a concentrate allows you to add half the cooling system capacity (check your owner's manual) and then top up with water and finish with a true 50:50 mix in the system.
Any remaining concentrate can then be diluted with an equal volume of water and used to top up in the future.
