In the 2001 Chevy Silverado 1500 series, orange dex cool coolant is used. It's important not to mix different types of coolant in your vehicle as this can lead to corrosion in your engine and cooling system. If you're unsure about the type of coolant in your car but notice low levels, it's safe to top it off with distilled water. While this might slightly reduce cooling capacity, it won't harm engine components. Make it a habit to check your coolant whenever you change your oil to ensure it's at the right level. Coolant can evaporate or boil off over time, potentially causing low levels.
