Redline Water Wetter or Motul MoCool ok?

I find that the collant temps get really hot even in this cold fall weather we're having here in Toronto.

I have an extra bottle of Redline WaterWetter in my garage and was wondering if if was ok to use on my C63.

I've used it on all my other cars... but I thought I'd ask you guys first =O)

thanks in advance!

What are the temperatures your car is running at?

Have you checked the owner's manual? If so, does it address whether you can add an additive to the coolant?

I have never heard of anyone having issues with the water temp getting out of hand. Even during 100 degree track days with the oil temps pushing 280, the coolant temp rarely cracks 200.

I've used both for years, but not in the the C63 yet. If you feel the need to use this kind of product I'd go with Motul MoCool. JMO, nothing specific.

Temps are not getting out of hand. Nor are they so hot that it's a concern.

I was just wondering if it was OK to put it in =O)

Car warms up really quick. Never had a car that the interior heat would heat up so quickly is all.
