OAT advice and 2-EHA antifreeze

[Mgaz]

I went and bought some OAT to top up my radiator level, its called 'Carplan PREMIUM RED anti freeze'

But in my paranoia I've just found a post on here that says some OAT antifreeze contains something called '2-EHA' and could eat away at the silicone on the head gaskets?

Does anybody know if this carpan stuff I've just put in is safe for the kV6 engine?

2-EHA was dropped from OAT formulas yonks ago, so that was then and now is different. But give a dog a bad name as they say.

Thanks for that bit of info! :)

At least that's one less thing to worry about.
