Hey, Klaus, could you elaborate on "wrong kind of antifreeze would lead to pin holes through the metal?" Was there something unusual about the early white blocks, or is this still an issue (especially thinking about coolant contamination of the transmission fluid). Does that mean I should go to Volvo for antifreeze, even though our water is pristine? Yikes!
