No, flush and refill with the CORRECT fluid, not just with any old 'coolant is coolant' product.

Better yet, the OP just needs to go back the garage and get them to prove that the coolant they used meets the Jag spec. in the owner's manual.

I just went through this could not figure out what coolant to use. I looked around Napa and found the code on one bottle and it was zerex dexcool $17.49 at any Napa store. It is not 50/50 you will have to mix.

The coolant specs are printed on the labels of every jug of coolant I've ever purchased. Some brands show the specs more prominently than others, but it's always been there. Sometimes you just have to look a bit harder to find it....
