Yes it is.
correct antifreeze for 2006 dodge ram diesel truck
Yes, in the radiator, unless it's air cooled (I don't know of any air cooled diesel car/truck engines)
Diesel antifreeze is specifically formulated to protect diesel engines from extreme temperatures and corrosion. Regular antifreeze is designed for gasoline engines and may not provide adequate protection for diesel engines, which operate at higher temperatures and have different metal components. It is important to use the correct type of antifreeze for your specific engine to prevent damage and ensure optimal performance.
The amount of antifreeze needed for a Vauxhall Astra diesel can vary depending on the engine model and the cooling system capacity. Generally, you should mix antifreeze with water in a 50:50 ratio. Check your owner's manual for the specific capacity of your vehicle's cooling system, which typically ranges from 5 to 8 liters. Always ensure the engine is cool before adding any coolant or antifreeze.

It will overheat because the water is needed to circulate/transfer the heat.
Put diesel in it. Or drain all of the oil/antifreeze if you want the damage to be most likely irreversable.🚗🚙 yer
diesel has a lower boiling point than antifreeze. as the engine heats up the diesel will vapourize and cause high pressure in your system. you will also has much worse temperature control in your engine.
I was looking at the 2004 Ford F-350 diesel supplement and it shows that the engine cooling system capacity is 27.5 U.S. quarts ( that includes the heater and the 5 quarts in the reservoir ) It came from the factory with a 50 / 50 mix of distilled water and antifreeze So for a 50 / 50 mix you would need approximately ( 3.5 gallons of antifreeze )

Prestone extended life diesel antifreeze(red) sold at tractor supply.4 jugs antifreeze + 4 jugs distilled water(sold at the grocery store).flush the cooling system out first(get all the old coolant out first)
The type of car antifreeze that is safest to the environment is propylene glycol antifreeze. While it is still not totally safe, it is less toxic than other antifreeze.
