Hier gibt es noch einen Beitrag zum orangen Kühlmittel mit Ford Freigabe WSS-M97B44-D
wie für den Evoque gefordert:

Das orange Kühlmittel wurde also auch beim Hersteller 2018 durch ein gelbes Nachfolgeprodukt
ersetzt, von phosphatfrei auf phosphathaltig aber mischbar.
Hier gibt es eine Reihe von Kühlerfrostschutzmitteln mit derselben Freigabe, die werben
dann auch mit Volvo VCS und DEXCOOL.

Ford Coolant History
Motorcraft Green (Up to 2001)
The Motorcraft Green coolant was one of the earliest products used by Ford and stayed in circulation till 2001. The product was an inorganic acid technology-based coolant and was offered with soluble Silicates as corrosion inhibitors. When Ford’s cast iron blocks were replaced by lighter aluminum units that operated at higher temperatures, the inferior heat transfer capabilities of the Green Silicate coolant rendered this product obsolete.
Motorcraft Gold (2001 to 2011)
Ford replaced the Green coolant with Motorcraft’s Hybrid Organic Acid Technology (H-OAT) Gold Coolant which was used in most models until 2011. This product was designed to offer better protection for the new aluminum blocks and operate under higher pressures. The Gold H-OAT coolant was a versatile product as it was completely compatible with cast iron engines that ran on the old Green inorganic coolant.
Motorcraft Specialty Green — 2009 to 2010
Back in 2009, Ford’s partnership with Japanese car manufacturer Mazda was still going strong and the company used its Specialty Green P-OAT coolant in several models that the two carmakers co-developed. The Green P-OAT coolant was Ford’s first Phosphate-based coolant but it wasn’t the most durable Motorcraft product and would degrade quite rapidly when exposed to sunlight.
Motorcraft Orange — 2011 to 2018
Ford has been using its Orange OAT coolant since 2011 but it has now been completely cut out of circulation. Motorcraft’s Orange Organic Acid Technology (OAT) coolant did not have any Phosphates or Silicates and offered better heat transfer. The coolant was offered with a 5-year/100,000 miles protection interval but the product was plagued by fallout and protection issues which the company addressed in the latest phosphate-based Yellow coolant.
Motorcraft Yellow — 2018+
The all-new Yellow P-OAT coolant is similar to the Specialty Green P-OAT coolant Ford introduced in some of its models in 2009. The new product was first introduced in 2018 and was designed to offer better performance than its predecessor, especially in extremely cold temperatures.
Motorcraft Yellow Coolant Backwards Compatibility
Transitioning from the Orange to the new Yellow coolant is pretty straight forward because the new product is backward compatible. Customers running the Orange coolant and even the Specialty Green coolant can top off their systems with the new Yellow P-OAT coolant. The new Yellow coolant does react with the calcium and magnesium present in tap water so make sure to use distilled water with it. The protection interval of the new Yellow P-OAT coolant is rated at 10 years or 200,000 miles.
Das orange war also einfach Scheisse.
