Never had a problem with it. I use it in my 1999 LTZ, Avalance and Sky. The only thing I use in green is on the old Astro.

Re: Dexcool...

If your vehicle came with Dex Cool from the factory, it's best to keep using it. here is a link with info and a good reason to continue using it:http://free-auto-repair-advice.blogs...label/Dex-Cool . I've used it in a few of my GM vehicles without any issues. As long as it's properly maintained it should give you a good service life.

Thanks for the "heads up" about the bad link. I guess the address to the link had changed since the last time I referenced it.
I also fixed the link in my post above.
