You can use the predeluted 50/50 Preston brand at any auto parts store. It has a green cap. Once you go to the store you can also give them your car's year and brand and they will tell you the exact brand. Good luck

You can use the Yellow coolant, which is compatible with all coolant types, or the OEM recommendation in your owner's manual, which is Dex-Cool, an orange/red type of coolant.

There have been reports of coolant types being mixed and causing gelling and other problems with the coolant system, so unless you're sure of which type of coolant is already there, it's best to use either a universal type, or flush and refill with a specific type.

When filling your radiator, only distilled water should be used, to prevent corrosion in your coolant passages and radiator/heater core assemblies.
