A Toyota/Lexus PN would be appreciated.
I went to a Toyota dealer in Charleston, SC and asked the Parts Tech about coolant for a 2007 Lexus GS350. The red premixed (50/50) and non mixed (100%) were on the shelf. He said Toyota/Lexus has 5-7 different coolant types based on engine and model year. I thought that was crazy. He couldn't tell me which one my Lexus needed because he only had access to Toyota models and requirements. Needless to say, I walked away disappointed. I assume I need the 50/50 pre-mixed PN 00272-SLCC2, but would like to confirm the PN before purchasing. Thanks.

It should say in your owner's manual, but the super long life coolant is the right one

And seven types of coolant? Haha I don't think Toyota even makes seven different engine types!

I use Mobil Delvac Coolant extended life, after changing coolant every 2 years, found out that the Mobil collant is pretty much the same as the toyota one
