Hi all, recent got a 206Gti V reg and everything is a ok, but i just have a couple of questions.

I was thinking of draining and replacing the coolant fluid. Is there a particular type that i could get from halfords that i need to put in?

Also, the digital temperature control display does not work, is this an easy fix?

Thanks

Regarding the clock, it will most likely be a ppt30 display and one of the solders has most likely broke. There's a guide on how to repair it here.

I've just changed my coolant and I've used the blue stuff which apparently lasts for 2 years. I think the red OAT stuff can be used which is supposed to last 5 years. The coolant system just need a thorough flushing first.
