Antifreeze is not car specific as much as it is weather specific. look for the antifreeze that will work with your coldest weather to do exactly what it does which is prevents freezing. make sure to mix it 50/50 with water by dividing your radiator capacity in 1/2. many companies like prestone make premixed antifreeze as well I'm sorry but antifreeze is made for specific cars use what is compatible with your car or truck It uses regular Green.
The heat will also work when the car is turned on, but not moving. It uses heat from the engine.
There are seven different types of antifreeze. What your car takes depends on the year/make/model. It can usually be found in an owner's manual.
