This is the genuine Volvo Penta VCS-2 Orange ready-mixed coolant for newer-generation Volvo Penta marine engines. It provides freeze and overheat protection while guarding internal cooling-system components against corrosion, cavitation, and material deterioration. The ready-mixed formula goes straight into the system — no measuring, no mixing.
Compatible Applications
Designed for Volvo Penta marine engines originally specified for VCS Yellow or VCS-2 Orange coolant. Always match the coolant type to the specification originally supplied with your engine. If you are unsure which coolant your engine requires, check the engine label or service manual before ordering.
- Newer-generation Volvo Penta gasoline and diesel marine engines specifying VCS or VCS-2 coolant
- Systems currently filled with Volvo Penta Yellow VCS coolant (compatible — can be mixed)
Coolant Compatibility — Important
- Compatible with: Volvo Penta Yellow VCS coolant — can be topped up or mixed without flushing
- Not compatible with: Volvo Penta Green coolant — do not mix under any circumstances. Flush the system completely before switching from Green to VCS-2 Orange.
Service Interval

Parts Desk Insights
The most common issue we see with this coolant is customers mixing it with the older Green coolant — these are chemically incompatible and the result can cause cooling system damage. If you are unsure what's currently in your engine, a full flush before refilling with VCS-2 Orange is the safest approach. For engines that have been sitting or had coolant neglected past the 4-year mark, a system flush and full refill is strongly recommended before the next season. The ready-mixed format is the most convenient option for a straight top-up or single-engine refill; if you are servicing multiple engines or want to adjust freeze protection, the concentrate (24389709) may be a better fit.

A: No. 24389714 is ready mixed and goes directly into the cooling system as supplied.
Q: Can I top up my VCS Yellow system with VCS-2 Orange?
A: Yes — VCS-2 Orange is compatible with Volvo Penta Yellow VCS coolant and can be used to top up an existing VCS system.

A: Volvo Penta specifies a 4-year change interval for VCS-2 coolant. Replace at this interval or after any major cooling system service that requires draining.
