Any you want but don't mix them. OAT lasts longer than standard blue antifreeze and is better for alloy bits.

Water + 50% antifreeze = coolent... when you D2 left the factory it used OAT antifreeze.

I think it should also be silicate free but most OAT ones are.

Also bear in mind that unless you remove the alternator and drain from the bung in the side of the block, as well as the rad or lower pipe, you'll only drain about half of the coolant.
