Needed to put in coolant. Dealer said make sure it is orange. I went to Advance Auto. They pointed me to this http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/prestone-dex-cool-174-50-50-prediluted-extended-life-antifreeze-coolant-af850/7020008-P?searchTerm=prestone. It was orange. Did I damage anything by topping off with it? Oh man, I am nervous now.

I just spoke to a service adviser at the dealer. He said since the coolant I bought meets MS-9769 spec, I am fine. I didn't buy the generic all makes/models one. Since I just used some to raise the level from below minimum, it probably doesn't pay to drain the reservoir just to add OEM.
