General Motors, the company that manufactures Chevys, recommends using Dexcool with a 50/50 mixture of distilled water as the coolant for the 2008 Chevy Malibu. This coolant is not employed for directly cooling the engine but instead functions to prevent rust formation in the coolant system and lower the freezing point. Different coolant variations are necessary due to the various metals used in the engine blocks, each requiring specific additives to prevent rust. Dex-Cool is the ideal antifreeze for these engines, identified by its orange color and extended-life formula that can last up to 100,000 miles.

    I would be happy to help with that. "Fifty-fifty" means an equal split or division of something, with each party receiving an equal share.
