2014 Mercedes CLA250 4MATIC got the car at exactly 100k on the odo. Changed every fluid on the car

Out - Unknown very dark blue with a hint of green when held up to the light in a clear container coolant tester said protecting to somewhere in the -20 range ...... removed resivour and hoses flushed with hot water from the shop hose until completely clear blew out everything with low pressure air hose

In - Peak Euro violet about 2 quarts of pure concentration and the rest premix 50/50
New resivour and cap due to previous hands had tightened the cap far past the stop point and broke the cap stopper off..... coolant tester shows in the - 30 range color is nice and clean

Wanted to go Liqui Moly violet on the coolant but it was not as convenient to source as the Peak also had gallons of the Peak Global in the gold bottle in the shop for other vehicles but was convinced here on BITOG to go Euro violet now I have a partial to add to my collection😁

2009 Prius
Out - GC(same as Toyota OE fill)and Zerex Asian pink
In - Prestone Cor-Guard green/yellow, like the new Ford stuff.
 
2016 Toyota Avalon 96,000 miles

Out - Factory
In - Peak Original Equipment Asian (on sale for $10 bucks a gallon at Walmart). Was planning on using Toyota Super Long Life but i mean, I was able to buy the Peak at half the cost. Usually I never go aftermarket BUT at $10 bucks?? That’s insane! This stuff is usually $20 bucks. And Toyota’s stuff is usually $24.
 
2017 Honda Pilot Elite AWD with 9-speed ZF tranny. Drained factory coolant at the 5 year mark and refilled with SuperTech Extended 50/50. Dealer quoted $200 just to replace 2 gallons of coolant. Honda must've designed this to be a pain in the neck in order to drive people to the dealerships.
