Default Coolant

2013 Mazda Mazda2 Touring
1.5L

The manual says coolant to use is FL22.
I can't find any OEM FL22 anywhere.
What can I use in place of that which will mix with the original that's in the car now?
What color is it?
Thanks!

Use top brand coolant suppliers and read the application guides.

If you are adding coolant only you may be able to simply add water? This depends on the current age of your coolant and also where you live.

I replaced my good old fashion GREEN Zerox in my 2018 Mazda 3 2.5 . I also routinely check the % and coolant condition. At 53k miles 1/2 has been on Zerox

If you look at the MAZDA information it states recommend not REQUIRED to use FL22. The use of other FL22 aftermarket and compatible coolant will not void your WARRANTY as per the

Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act - Wikipedia
