For the 2006 Toyota Avalon, Toyota recommends using Genuine Toyota Super Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant. This coolant is a 50/50 mix of ethylene glycol and is designed to also act as antifreeze during cold weather. It's important to follow the manufacturer's suggestion and use the right coolant for your car. During summer, not using the correct coolant can lead to overheating, causing the car to shut off temporarily to prevent damage and fires. This can be inconvenient for the driver. Similarly, in winter, using improper antifreeze can lead to freezing, making regular water unsuitable as it can easily freeze.
The ideal coolant for a 2006 Toyota Avalon is the Toyota red coolant recommended by the manufacturer.
