I went to my mechanic, and after changing my oil, he added in some anti-freeze (another brand) into the coolant. It wasn't a honda brand, but I was wondering if it was okay. He only added in a little bit, but now its over the max line by an inch.

my car has 5,500 miles on it.

i actually went to the dealer about this, but all they did was check for leaks and then say it was okay. i was willing to spend another 170 for coolant flush, but he said its not necessary. am i just freaking out?

should this be okay?

"am i just freaking out?"

Yes.

but i am just worried b/c in the manual it says ONLY use acura anti-freeze, and if any other kind is used, it may dilute and cause more corrosion and unnecessary wear.
