These chemicals if added to American glycol based antifreeze can precipitate and float as particulates around your cooling system. For example Toyota red antifreeze contains silicates that American antifreezes will not contain. Also, mixing brands of antifreezes can cause unwanted chemicals. OAT antifreeze may not do as good of a job preventing corrosion of brass or copper.

OAT antifreeze is designed to be used to protect aluminum components from corrosion in newer cars with aluminum radiators and heads. The biggest thing to look out for is using the organic acid technology (OAT) in older vehicles with brass or copper radiators. There are 3 basic types of antifreeze used today, ethylene glycol based, propylene Glycol based and the newer Organic Acid Technology. What are the different types of antifreeze? Low coolant levels can cause immediate damage while the wrong type or mixed coolants will take a long time to cause problems. At the end of the day, it is far more important to have the proper level of coolant in your vehicle, even if it is the “wrong type” or a bad mixture. This option will also most likely be the most expensive option you have available, and there may be an off the shelf antifreeze you can use just as easily without harming your vehicle and save some money. Some such situation where this is a good idea is newer Ford vehicles with a gold color antifreeze, or GM vehicles that came with Dex-Cool. That way it will match exactly in color and chemical makeup, leaving nothing to chance and making sure your vehicle’s cooling system will stay working at top efficiency for years to come. If you plan on keeping your car for the rest of its useful life, the surefire way to make sure you pick the right kind of antifreeze that your vehicle needs is to go to the dealership and purchase some directly from the manufacturer. Luckily the manufactures of these new and different antifreezes have continued to make them different colors so they are easily identifiable. We can debate whether or not that is true in another article, but for us, that means there are even more varieties and classes of antifreeze available for your vehicle.
