Hello Everyone, I was wondering if I can get some help here.
So I got myself a 2014 Ram 1500 and I put in a 180 thermostat last week. So the OEM coolant color is like a pinkish orange color. After doing research I see that for 13 and up, Chrysler switched to OAT coolant which is now purple. So my question is why is my coolant not purple? When I went to the dealer, I asked for coolant for my 14 and they wanted to give me the purple. But I told them mine was the pink-orange colored one, so they gave me the Mopar Coolant in that pinkish-orange color. So should I dump mine out and throw the purple one in there?
