CarPlan BSR005 Blue Star Ready Mixed Antifreeze & Coolant – 5L
CarPlan Blue Star is a ready mixed antifreeze and engine coolant for compatible petrol and diesel vehicle cooling systems, supplied in a convenient 5-litre container.
Unlike concentrated antifreeze, BSR005 is already premixed with de-ionised water and is ready to use without further dilution. It is based on mono-ethylene glycol and contains corrosion inhibitors designed to protect the metals commonly found throughout an automotive cooling system while providing year-round protection against freezing and overheating.

Ready mixed: BSR005 is supplied at its intended working concentration and does not require additional water before use. This makes it particularly convenient when carrying out a complete coolant change or topping up a cooling system that already contains a compatible coolant.
Cooling system protection: Blue Star helps protect cooling-system metals against corrosion while providing freeze protection down to -17°C. CarPlan also specifies good compatibility with seals, hoses and plastic cooling-system components.
Fitment advice: Antifreeze and coolant should always be selected according to the coolant specification required by the vehicle manufacturer rather than colour alone. Check the specification and type of coolant already in the vehicle before topping up or mixing products. Where changing coolant type, completely draining and flushing the system is recommended before refilling.
Application: When carrying out a full coolant change, drain and flush the cooling system with clean water and inspect hoses, joints and clips for leaks or deterioration. Fill with the ready mixed coolant, run the engine sufficiently to circulate the coolant and remove trapped air in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer's bleeding procedure, then recheck the coolant level once appropriate.
Other items to consider: Cooling-system flush, replacement radiator or heater hoses, hose clips, thermostat, radiator cap and water pump where inspection indicates replacement is required.
Why CarPlan? CarPlan is a Tetrosyl automotive-care brand offering a wide range of vehicle maintenance products. Blue Star Ready Mixed Antifreeze provides convenient pre-diluted coolant for compatible cooling systems without the need to measure and mix antifreeze concentrate separately.
