Honda coolant at a glance

Honda products in this directory are made or sold by American Honda Motor Co.. We list 1 of them, 1 car/light-vehicle. Listed chemistries: not published (1). Listed colours: not published (1). 0 of 1 state a service life, and 0 make a "free of" claim (for example silicate-free or nitrite-free).

These counts describe what Honda publishes, not how good a product is. A product with no listed spec codes may still meet them. It means the manufacturer did not print them on the page we checked.

Chemistries Honda lists

Chemistry is the inhibitor family that protects the metals in a cooling system. Here is what Honda names across its products, with a short explanation of each family:

  • not published (1 product): The manufacturer does not name the inhibitor technology on the source we checked.

Two products in the same family are not always interchangeable, because additive levels and approvals differ. See OAT vs HOAT vs IAT and G11, G12, G13 and G48.

Specs and approvals Honda lists

These are the OEM and industry spec codes Honda lists across its products. Each one reads as "meets [code] per Honda". The manufacturer's own wording ("approved", "meets or exceeds", "recommended for") is quoted on each product page. A listing is the manufacturer's claim, not an approval by Coolant.com or by the vehicle maker unless the wording says so.

How to choose a Honda coolant

  1. Find the spec in your owner's manual (or the label on the coolant reservoir cap). It may be a code such as WSS-M97B44-D, GMW 3420, MS-12106, TL 774-G or MB 325.0, or a named factory coolant.
  2. Check whether Honda lists that exact code. Use the table above, or type the code into Find my car coolant. Letter suffixes matter: TL 774-G is not TL 774-J.
  3. Open the product page and read the wording. "Approved" is stronger than "meets or exceeds", and both are stronger than "recommended for vehicles requiring".
  4. Choose premix or concentrate. Honda lists 0 concentrate and 1 premix products here (some are sold both ways). Premix avoids mixing errors; concentrate must be diluted with distilled or deionised water. See premix vs concentrate.
  5. Do not mix chemistries. If the system already holds a different coolant, check the mixing checker or flush first. See can you mix coolant?
