Honda coolant is weird. Honda designed its water pumps around Japanese antifreeze, which is silicate-free. Traditionally, American antifreeze has silicates for corrosion resistance. This, however, will break a Honda water pump. You need either the real Honda Genuine at eleven bucks for a gallon of 50/50 premix, or the "all makes all models" antifreeze at a car parts store. Any other kind will eat the bearings in your water pump.
Now let me ask you: if Honda knows they sell millions of cars every year in a place where the antifreeze is hostile to their water pumps, why wouldn't they buy American-antifreeze-compatible water pumps for the cars they sell here?
