The 2500 Dodge diesel uses ZEREX G05 antifreeze/coolant. It is a hybrid organic acid technology (HOAT) coolant that provides freeze and boil over protection, as well as corrosion inhibition for the engine. It is recommended for use in light-duty applications for up to 5 years or 150,000 miles, and in heavy-duty applications for up to 3 years or 300,000 miles. This coolant is also used in the Ram 2500 6.7 diesel.

Do diesel trucks need special antifreeze?
YES! Diesels actually create shock waves when they fire and can cause cavitation on the cylinder liners. Cavitation is tiny bubbles erupting from the metal surface tearing metal with it. Diesel coolants are specially formulated to protect the cylinders from losing metal and becoming eroded away.
What antifreeze goes in a 6.7 Cummins diesel?
Zerex G 05 coolant is correct.
What coolant to put in 6.7 Cummins?
HEAVY-DUTY ANTIFREEZE & COOLANT (ANTHD)
Pre-mixed 50/50 with high-purity water. Fully formulated: DOES NOT require the use of supplemental coolant additives (SCAs) or extenders. Proprietary hybrid organic acid (HOAT) formulation is further enhanced with anti-scalant, anti-fouling and water-pump lubrication additives.
What color is coolant in a Ram 2500?
What color coolant does RAM 2500 use? It’s important to understand that color doesn’t matter. While most Organic Acid Technology (OAT) coolants are usually orange, yellow, red or purple, Hybrid Organic Acid Technology (HOAT) coolants are orange and yellow.
Which antifreeze is the best for diesel?
RAVENOL Fließverbesserer can be mixed and is compatible with all diesel fuels (except Biodiesel) as well as fuel oils EL. Higher dosings as recommended are harmless. Demixing won’t occur.
What coolant does my 6.7 Cummins take?
HEAVY-DUTY ANTIFREEZE & COOLANT (ANTHD)
Pre-mixed 50/50 with high-purity water. Fully formulated: DOES NOT require the use of supplemental coolant additives (SCAs) or extenders. Proprietary hybrid organic acid (HOAT) formulation is further enhanced with anti-scalant, anti-fouling and water-pump lubrication additives.
What is the best antifreeze for a diesel truck?
Organic Acid Coolant (OAT)
Organic acid coolants are long life coolants with a corrosion protection additive. Using an organic acid coolant should provide effective cooling for the entire life of your diesel engine while protecting aluminum, magnesium and other metals from corrosion.
What kind of coolant goes in a Ram 2500 diesel?
Genuine Mopar Parts 68048953AB Antifreeze/Coolant – 1 Gallon Bottle.
What kind of antifreeze does a Cummins diesel use?
PGXL® HD is a premium heavy-duty fully-formulated extended-life propylene glycol-based coolant. PGXL® HD uses hybrid technology that combines the best of OAT and conventional inhibitor technologies to enhance corrosion protection performance.
What coolant goes in a 6.7 Cummins?
Zerex G05 is the factory fill, but the Mopar bottled stuff is orange, the OEM is pink, and the G05 off the shelf is yellow.. but it’s all Zerex G05. There are many coolants that HOAT does not mix with (regardless of what the bottle says) and can gum up and give you lots of issues. This is a 5.9, but no difference.
