Hey Guys ,,, Have a 2019 Gt Convertible and was looking at the coolant in the tank to see the color. I have some zerox PINK coolant left over from my Audi, and was wondering if I can mix it just for topping off the tank when needed… Or should I just go get some Motocraft oolant at Walmart.
Thanks
Grandpa. Bill

I agree with @Jackismydog, stick to the manufacturer's recommended coolant. This goes for any vehicle, not just for Ford. The car was designed a certain why, trust the engineers on what they recommend.

OP you have a nice car, don't gamble with something silly like mixing an Audi coolant just because you have some left over. :) We aren't talking about mixing coolants on some old clunker nobody cares about here.

The new ford P-OAT coolant mixes with the previous generation of ford coolant but i can't imagine Audi mixes the same with it. I have a bottle at home of zerex that i just used that's not genuine motorcradt that i used just to flush out the pink stuff. I'll take a picture of it later

Ok. No mixing. Buying Zerox Orange coolant from O RRiley’s and will have when needed. 50/50 mix. Thanks for the help. Great Forum

The only time I mixed trans fluids was when I started up my new QuickJack a couple weeks ago. Poured leftover ATF quart bottles into the pump tank. Totally different application of ATF!

Agree with the majority. For the cost it’s not worth the potential unhappiness that might ensue.
