I'd say that any modern no-phosphate ethylene glycol should be safe for any
modern car. I'm sure that if there are some bizarre exceptions that someone

The most sensitive vehicle of which I have heard is the VW Vanagan(sp?).
There is one alloy part that rots if good no-phosphate stuff is not used.
