Should be Dexcool but look at it, if it's orange it's Dexcool, it's it green it's been changed to regular antifreeze. Do NOT mix them!!! If you want to switch from orange to green you'll need to flush the system several times to get as much as possible out. I've also heard not to use the yellow (mixes with all colors) with the Dexcool even though it claims it's safe.
